Package: virtualbox-ose Version: 4.0.4-dfsg-1 Severity: serious the sid virtualbox-ose package missing conflicts procedures in dkms and/or source packages for modules, when compiles and install, at start or load modules into kernel put this message to stdout and dmesg filter said:
[ 5594.948928] vboxdrv: Found 2 processor cores. [ 5594.949384] vboxdrv: fAsync=0 offMin=0x249 offMax=0x1159c2 [ 5594.949429] vboxdrv: TSC mode is 'synchronous', kernel timer mode is 'normal'. [ 5594.949431] vboxdrv: Successfully loaded version 4.0.4_OSE (interface 0x00160000). [ 5594.958540] vboxguest: exports duplicate symbol RTMemFreeEx (owned by vboxdrv) and searching i note that previously instalation of similar virtualbox-ose-dkms or (guest-dkms) packages do not remove by mistake the old vboxguest module (dkms in previous compilation then removed), and then obviously try to load at same time as vboxdrv and netfilter brigde. after rm -f /lib/modules/`uname -r`/misc/*guest* situation solves! and virtualboxworks! as can note, in debian system information virtualbox-guest-additions was not instaled, was instaled and then i removed later, so theres no confusion on this bug that are quite necesary to fix, due many sites cite as build error and only its a package mistake. SOLUTION SOLVED: adde conflicts in virtualbox-xxxx-xxxx-source packages templates, in the files control.modules.in and this prevent and handle part of solution, also maybe a rm command on pre-install for for the presence of modules are not removed by dkms posr-remove script at uninstalll thems, due they can have problems with the "source" and generated from virtualbox-ose-xxx-source modules packages! i hope this help -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.1 Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.38-massenkoh-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=es_VE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=es_VE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages virtualbox-ose depends on: ii adduser 3.112+nmu2 add and remove users and groups ii libc6 2.11.2-10 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libcurl3 7.21.0-1 Multi-protocol file transfer libra ii libgcc1 1:4.4.5-8 GCC support library ii libpng12-0 1.2.44-1 PNG library - runtime ii libpython2.6 2.6.6-8+b1 Shared Python runtime library (ver ii libqtcore4 4:4.6.3-4 Qt 4 core module ii libqtgui4 4:4.6.3-4 Qt 4 GUI module ii libsdl1.2debian 1.2.14-6.1 Simple DirectMedia Layer ii libssl0.9.8 0.9.8o-4 SSL shared libraries ii libstdc++6 4.4.5-8 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libvncserver0 0.9.7-2+b1 API to write one's own vnc server ii libx11-6 2:1.3.3-4 X11 client-side library ii libxcursor1 1:1.1.10-2 X cursor management library ii libxext6 2:1.1.2-1 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxml2 2.7.8.dfsg-2 GNOME XML library ii libxmu6 2:1.0.5-2 X11 miscellaneous utility library ii libxt6 1:1.0.7-1 X11 toolkit intrinsics library ii python 2.6.6-3+squeeze5 interactive high-level object-orie ii python-central 0.6.16+nmu1 register and build utility for Pyt ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 compression library - runtime Versions of packages virtualbox-ose recommends: ii libgl1-mesa-glx [libgl1] 7.7.1-4 A free implementation of the OpenG ii libqt4-opengl 4:4.6.3-4 Qt 4 OpenGL module ii virtualbox-ose-qt 4.0.4-dfsg-1 x86 virtualization solution - Qt b ii virtualbox-ose-source 4.0.4-dfsg-1 x86 virtualization solution - kern Versions of packages virtualbox-ose suggests: ii libasound2 1.0.23-2.1 shared library for ALSA applicatio ii libpulse0 0.9.21-3 PulseAudio client libraries ii vde2 2.2.3-3 Virtual Distributed Ethernet pn virtualbox-guest-additions <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information -- Lenz McKAY Gerardo (PICCORO) http://qgqlochekone.blogspot.com Cofundador de Venenux; debian based multimedia alike free only zealots users (oh well, i try but..too many free guidelines buahhh) http://shutendouji.net creador de massenkoh linux; debian enhanchements for better up to date support on stable brand, including non-free soft.
