[Pkg-virtualbox-devel] Bug#497505: virtualbox-ose doesn't work with linux 2.6.26

[Michael Meskes]

Package: virtualbox-ose, linux-image-2.6
Version: 1.6.2-dfsg-4
Severity: important

Please see here for details

Apparently it's unclear which party is at fault. However, I'd like to get this
documented here as well, so I try reporting it against both packages.

Don't worry about the version informatin below, I testesd it with 1.6.4 to no avail.
