Dmesg Log

[Frank Mehnert]

Please could you attach your vboxnetflt.ko module to this ticket?

[Frank Mehnert]

Oh, and wherefrom do you have the kernel package?

[Leonardo Amaral]

Replying to frank:

Oh, and wherefrom do you have the kernel package?

Installed from Natty into Maverick. I know its a little weird, but ive registered this bug because this can be a problem with some 2.6.37 changes. Ill attach the file soon.

[Frank Mehnert]

Bridged networking works fine here with 2.6.37-rc4 / 64-bit vanilla.

[Frank Mehnert]

Does it still crash with VBox 4.1.2? There were some changes in the Linux bridging network driver, so it is worth trying. Please reopen if still relevant.
