looking for virtualbox-modules-2.6.24-19-rt

hello
where can I find the virtualbox-modules-2.6.24-19-rt? I did a lot of searching today but cannot find them.
In case I am hunting a ghost here is why: I first had the virtualbox OSE installed (at that point I did not know about the other version). It asked for the kernel modules and I downloaded them via synaptic. And it worked like a charm - fantastic. But THEN I got greedy. I wanted USB and found out about that other version - downloaded it from SUN and uninstalled the OSE. Now, when I want to intstall the .deb I run into what seems to be the same errors like before with OSE, only this time I cannot find these modules. I also tried to run as root the setup sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup but it did not work.
I am running Ubuntustudio 2.6.24-19-rt
thank you!

You have to install the package linux-headers-2.6.24-19-rt. Then, execute

Code: Select all

/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup

Make sure you install the dkms package as well, this package will care about recompiling the modules automatically after a kernel upgrade.
