Curt, I don't know if this is related to the problem or not, but make sure that you don't have CONFIG_LOCALVERSION or CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO set in your kernel configuration file and make sure that you specify --append-to-version and --revision on *every* invocation of make-kpkg. How are you creating the virtualbox and nvidia packages? Are you using module-assistant? Or are you compiling a kernel source module package using the modules_image target of make-kpkg? If you are using module-assistant (which I don't recommend if you are building out-of-kernel-source-tree kernel module packages for a custom kernel) then you will need to use the kernel_headers target as well as the kernel_image target, then install both before moving on to create the modules package. It is best to install the Debian out-of-kernel-source-tree kernel module source package and use the kernel_image and modules_image targets. Then you don't have to create or install kernel header packages. HTH -- .''`.
