Description Guillaume Castagnino 2012-09-13 21:55:35 UTC

Hi,

After upgrading to virtualbox 4.2.0, there is a problem with the modules version.
Installed: [I] app-emulation/virtualbox-modules (4.2.0@13/09/2012): Kernel Modules for Virtualbox


But:
# modinfo vboxdrv
filename:       /lib/modules/3.5.3-gentoo/misc/vboxdrv.ko
version:        4.1.22 (0x00190000)
license:        GPL
description:    Oracle VM VirtualBox Support Driver
author:         Oracle Corporation
srcversion:     4302F45BEB8EC107EBB7A10
depends:        
vermagic:       3.5.3-gentoo SMP mod_unload 
parm:           force_async_tsc:force the asynchronous TSC mode (int)


And when starting a VM, virtualbox complains about a module version mismatch.
It seems there is something wrong with the source tarball !

Thanks !

Would confirm, don't appear to be allowed to.

The vbox-kernel-module-src-4.2.0.tar.xz tarball is made out of the 4.1.22 tree.
