hi jason,
debian moved with virtualbox to version 4.3.30.
would you please provide suitable modules from
virtualbox-4.3.26-host-modules-3.16.6-tinycore.tar.gz
to the actual version?
thank you for your help.

I will build them for 4.3.40, thanks for letting me know.

hi jason,
did you mean version 4.3.30?
did you build virtualbox-4.3.30-host-modules-3.16.6-tinycore?
i guess that there are not in the repository yet!?
thank you for your help.
-
Yeah.

Both host and guest additions modules built for Virtualbox versions:
5.0.4 - dCore-wily
4.3.30 - dCore-jessie
And a host modules package for 4.3.10 for dCore-trusty. The guest additions modules did not build with the error mentioned on the below page. Kernel versions that are of a different time period than the packages using it can be trouble when building modules. So in the future I would like to leave the kernel version for each dCore release the same for the life of that port. Want a newer kernel, use a newer dCore port.

Spent some time today getting Virtualbox to work with dCore-wily. There were some changes in the package from the previous Ubuntu releases that prevented it from running out of the box but it is working now. If running dCore-wily and virtualbox-qt does not function, update any SCEs that contain virtualbox and virtualbox-qt and reboot and all should be well.

hi jason,
debian jessie moved with virtualbox to version 4.3.32.
would you please provide suitable modules from
virtualbox-4.3.30-host-modules-3.16.6-tinycore.tar.gz
to the actual version?
https://packages.debian.org/jessie/virtualbox
thank you for your help.

Ok, I will aim to get it soon.
-
Host and guest additions modules built and uploaded to repo. Tested the host modules running Virtualbox in dCore-jessie, please help test and confirm, especially the guest additions which I have not tested.

hi jason,
everything works smoothly and fine for me.
thank you for your great work.

Virtualbox version 4.1.42 is now in the security updates of dCore-wheezy. I will aim to build the modules soon.
-
4.1.42 is not building it's modules on Core6 for dCore-wheezy. I remember having issues in the past with building modules for dCore-wheezy with the newer 3.16.6 kernel, so I won't spend more time with it.
However, Virtualbox 5.0.10 is building it's modules nicely for the update in dCore-wily, aim to upload it soon.
-
Added modules for Virtualbox 4.3.34 and 5.0.10 to cover the updates that apply to dCore-trusty, dCore-vivid, and dCore-wily.
-
virtualbox updated to 4.3.36 :-)
thank you for your help and commitment.
-
Updated host and guest additions kernel modules for virtualbox 4.3.36 posted. Both dCore-jessie and dCore-trusty have this virtualbox version as their current, tested on dCore-jessie and should work for both.
Also the virtualbox modules for dCore-xenail are in place:
virtualbox-5.0.14-host-modules-4.2.9-tinycore
virtualbox-5.0.14-guest-additions-modules-4.2.9-tinycore
-
will there be any Virtualbox modules for regular tc or i misunderstood your past reply to me about that?
-
The modules for dCore-xenial were built on Core 7.x, the rest on Core6.x. They would only need to be converted to tcz.
