Hello,

after kernel update (to 2.6.25.20-0.1-default) i installed Virtual box
(virtualbox-ose-1.5.6-33.1) witch one doesn't work:

# /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup
Stopping VirtualBox kernel module done
Recompiling VirtualBox kernel module, NOT. It has been packaged. done
Starting VirtualBox kernel module
failed (Kernel module not found)

manually modules load just fine,
problem is that /etc/init.d/vboxdrv script looks for them in:

/lib/modules/`uname -r`/updates

but really they are in

/lib/modules/`uname -r`/weak-updates

Creating symlink between them solves problem.

In last used kernel (2.6.25.18-0.2-default) were no "weak-updates"
directory (witch caused problem) only "updates".

Can i call this issue a bug?
Yes, i found it also, but i havent looked why it doesn't works anymore.

Maybe the correlation from updates and weak updats is it why this nvidia
driver frome the repo doesnt work for me and some others.
