It is totally broken. The patch proposed backports only the relevant parts from upstream to fix the bug. The patch is from: https://www.virtualbox.org/changeset/41660/vbox [Test Case] Upgrade to 3.5 kernel on 12.04 and install virtualbox. [Development Fix] Fixed during Quantal cycle. [Stable Fix] Is being fixed in 4.1.12-dfsg-2ubuntu0.3 upload to precise-proposed. [Regression Potential] It is best to use the latest upstream version. But since that will cause major disruption, we have to track this package and corresponding bugs for regressions. jamespage: Please also check backwards compatibility with the 3.2 kernel; the patch should support this but best to make sure (not all 12.04 installs with have 3.5).
