Hi Dirk, first, you can always downgrade virtualbox, and you have plenty of google links teaching you how to cope with that. I can't reproduce the problem, and I'm trying together with upstream my best to fix it. For sure your bug report started with "virtualbox: DSA-3359-1 causes VBoxClient to send error message "The VirtualBox kernel service is not running" and to break off." and no bug content, so you didn't gave me enough stuff to work on. anyway, I have some questions for you, while I'm trying hardly to reproduce the problem (I did install and upgrade on a clean jessie without *any* issue in restarting VMs) I had similar reports in ubuntu, and they were caused by people running the virtualbox install from Oracle website (not the deb file, because we conflict with them) and then not completely purging virtualbox prior to install the Debian package. So if you really care about your VM you need to give us more information such as: 1) did you have a clean system? 2) can you please provide english logs? 3) can you please try to purge virtualbox (maybe from synaptic) and install it again? in the last case I would like to see the full install log, and for sure all the log files mentioned in a possible failure. cheers, Gianfranco
