The packages are built on 13.1-RELEASE which means the package will not load on 3.2. You need to have a system with the 3.2 kernel sources and then build the .ko on that system. It does not need to be the system it is to be run on, but must be an amd64 processor. The resulting package may be installed on any other 13.2 amd64 system. To build the package, get the sources for the kernel on the build system. Then: cd /usr/ports/emulators/virtualbox-ose-kmod pkg install kBuild (if not already installed) pkg install llvm14 (if not already installed) make package (if you want to install on another system) make install (on the system you need it on) In the last status report, this issue was being addressed, so I am hopeful that this is the last time the issue will show up, but no promises. In any case, the builds will be done on 13.2 when 13.1 goes EOL. --=20 Kevin Oberman, Part time kid herder and retired Network Engineer E-mail: rkoberman@gmail.com PGP Fingerprint: D03FB98AFA78E3B78C1694B318AB39EF1B055683 --00000000000045ff7105fb1434d8 Content-Type: text/html; charset="UTF-8" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <div dir=3D"ltr"><div dir=3D"ltr"><div class=3D"gmail_default" style=3D"fon= t-family:tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:small">On Sat, May 6, 2023 at 9:47=E2= =80=AFPM Steven Friedrich <<a href=3D"mailto:freebsdlouisville@gmail.com= ">freebsdlouisville@gmail.com</a>> wrote:</div></div><div class=3D"gmail= _quote"><blockquote class=3D"gmail_quote" style=3D"margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex= ;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">On a fresh instal= l of freebsd 13.2 (I did make a new kernel, but I'm <br> running GENERIC for this.<br> <br> I used pkg install to get virtualbox-ose.=C2=A0 When I try to load the <br> vboxdrv.ko, I get this error:<br> <br> KLD vboxdrv.ko: depends on kernel - not available or version mismatch<br> linker_load_file: /boot/modules/vboxdrv.ko - unsupported file type<br> <br> FreeBSD <a href=3D"http://freebsd.friedrich.org" rel=3D"noreferrer" target= =3D"_blank">freebsd.friedrich.org</a> 13.2-RELEASE FreeBSD 13.2-RELEASE <br= > releng/13.2-n254617-525ecfdad597 GENERIC amd64<br></blockquote><div><br></d= iv><div style=3D"font-family:tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:small" class=3D"gm= ail_default">And here we go again...</div><div style=3D"font-family:tahoma,= sans-serif;font-size:small" class=3D"gmail_default"><br></div><div style=3D= "font-family:tahoma,sans-serif;font-size:small" class=3D"gmail_default">The= packages are built on 13.1-RELEASE which means the package will not load o= n 3.2.
