When using virtualbox `/etc/rc.d/vboxdrv setup` has to be run after every kernel update on the host system. And on the guest systems the guest additions have to be updated, too. Heiko

Implemented it in my company a month or so ago, longer ago personally, and works like a charm. :) Paulo Santos

Rankin, J.D.,P.E. Are you sure it's a kernel bug? Your screen says segmentation fault in umount, so there must be some bug in that tool, not linux. Also, if the kernel panicks, the system won't shutdown at all. BTW, I recommend using png files instead of jpg. :)
