I can also confirm this. I'm using kernel 2.6.24-21-generic, for which the virtualbox-ose modules have not yet been compiled. When trying to use module-assistant I get the same errors as the first poster (assembly-related messages). This makes Virtualbox unusable in the 2.6.24-21 kernel.
As a temporary workaround, I was able to manually insert the module for 2.4.6-20-generic, which was still installed (since it is the latest dependency of the virtualbox-ose-modules-generic package) and it seems to work, by using the following command: sudo insmod /lib/modules/2.6.24-20-generic/misc/vboxdrv.ko dmesg reports success and the vbox machine seems to boot up and work OK. -- Building amd64 module for virtualbox-ose fails. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/238259 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
