I have tested kernel 4.13.0.38.57 from xenial-proposed and virtualbox is still freezing with virtualbox 5.0.40-dfsg-0ubuntu1.16.04.2.
Kernel 4.15.0.13.39, also from -proposed is too recent for Virtualbox 5.0.40-dfsg-0ubuntu1.16.04.2, and the vbox kernel module fails to build. However, installing virtualbox 5.1.34-dfsg-0ubuntu1.16.04.2 from -proposed (instead of 5.0.40-dfsg-0ubuntu1.16.04.2 from xenial-updates) worked on the -proposed 4.13 kernel as well as the 4.13.0.37.56 kernel from xenial-updates So, an imperfect solution for those freezes might be to upgrade Virtualbox to -proposed version (5.1) until it lands in -updates -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1745938 Title: System Freezes while starting VM in virtualbox after Kernrel Upgrade 4.13.0-31.34 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1745938/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
