after the kernel update to '-18', and still having VBox ose module that is '-17'. i did the following as suggested:

sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose-source /
sudo module-assistant update /
sudo module-assistant prepare /
sudo module-assistant a-i virtualbox-ose /
sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv restart /

It works...BUT somehow the audio doesn't work...

SCRATCH that. It didn't work with the ALSA that i was using previously. after the 5 steps here i had the change the audio from ALSA to Pulse. does this mean anything? bad?

ALSO, once the "virtualbox-ose-modules-generic 2.6.24-18' is updated in the ubunty repositories, can i simply update it normally. ie. will these 5 steps that i conducted affect or even not allow me to update to the new version of module?
