+ Users are not able to use virtualbox from the repository on 12.04 with 3.5 
kernel. It is totally broken.

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.

major disruption, we have to track this package and corresponding bugs for 
regressions.
