I'm sorry if the version number is confusing. 2.6.25-1 is what debian/changelog says in the linux-modules-extra source package. I am using the 2.6.25-2 kernel. I did an apt-get source and build-deps linux-modules-extra-2.6 and then (newlines added for clarity): % cat virtualbox-ose/defines [base] arches: i386 amd64 desc: PC virtualization solution longdesc: VirtualBox is a free PC virtualization solution allowing you to run a wide range of PC operating systems on your system. % rm debian/control* % debian/rules debian/control &>/dev/null % dpkg-buildpackage &> build.log % sudo dpkg -i ../virtualbox-ose-modules-2.6.25-2-amd64_2.6.25+1.5.6-dfsg-1_amd64.deb (Reading database ... 184852 files and directories currently installed.)
