VirtualBox buggered after latest kernel update

dude67's solution worked for me too!! Yaaay!!

 

And now Vbox runs swell.

 

However, I made the mistake of entering the Konsole command "# urpmi kernel-source-2.6.22.18-1mdv-1-1mdv2008.0", so now, every time I boot, Kernel wants (persistently insists) to install vboxadd (1.5.0-6mdv...) like 3 consecutive times while booting, always saying "Bad Exit Status 8, Build Failed, Installation Skipped."

 

Is there a way of killing whatever command is there in queue that tries to install this vboxadd in the kernel?

 

Any suggestions?

 

Thank you.

I solved it, just wanted to post the solution, just in case someone else needs it.

when I manually urpmi'ed, I send a 22.18 version to the kernel, and then went to software manager I uploaded 22.12 and 22.9 (older ones). Totally missed the .12 and .9 and take note of the previous .18

So, I went to software manager and uninstalled the outdated .12 and .9 for vboxadd and vboxvfs. Refreshed, rebooted, no problems, Vbox still runs swell
