Tobias, all,

After further testing with kernel 2.6.32.4-1, I have found two bugs:

(1) the kernel upgrade kills WindowMaker
(2) the kernel upgrade kills VirtualBox

It was ironic, because I was using WindowMaker when I installed the kernel and then on reboot, WindowMaker attempted to start and then crashed back to the login screen. After the upgrade I successfully rebuilt the kernel module for vb with vbox_build_module, then started vbox and it hung with a small dialog "spawning session". Let me know what information you want to see and I'll be happy to provide it or file a bug report. Thanks.
