I got permission denied even though I was sudo. However the new update
for linux-headers solved the issue.

Thanks

Subject: [Bug 247055] Re: problems with kernel 2.6.24.19 reporting as 2.6.24.3

I was able to reproduce this using the latest VirtualBox version 1.6.2
source downloaded directly from Sun. Note that the Ubuntu repo has a
very old 1.5.6

I traced the VirtualBox makefile (line 138 of 
./out/linux.x86/release/bin/src/Makefile) and it checks to make sure 2 values 
match:
* uname -r
* /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.24-19-generic/include/config/kernel.release

The kernel.release file has the (erroneous?) value "2.6.24.3". I fixed
it by:

cd /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.24-19-generic/include/config/kernel.release
cp -p kernel.release kernel.release.bak
uname -r > kernel.release

Afterwards, VirtualBox compilation should proceed as normal.

Trying to recompile kernel for virtual box and VMware modules and I get wrong 
kernel version 

uname -r gives 2.6.24.19-generic
but make kernelversion gives 2.6.24.3

so if I try to compile module I get error


Makefile:138: *** Error: /usr/src/linux (version 2.6.24.3) does not match the 
current kernel (version 2.6.24-19-generic).  Stop.

I am using hardy heron 8.04 amd64
