VirtualBox kernel module (port emulators/virtualbox-ose-kmod) began to cause system freezes from some kernel change around the end of January. Once the system freezes it has to be rebooted. Soundcard, if it was playing something, begins to cycle some very short piece. Nothing is logged into /var/log/messages. Is there any way to troubleshoot this, like enabling some kernel configuation options? What is normally done in such case? Should I run system under kernel debugger? But would it detect something if it's not a SEGV but the freeze? Yuri
