# in my case: virtualbox virtualbox-5.0 virtualbox-guest-utils virtualbox-guest-x11 virtualbox-qt # for each VirtualBox package -> remove it completely To clean this mess up, I did the following: # find all installed VirtualBox packages Jan 22 14:39:17 macke kernel: vboxnetflt: 0 out of 0 packets were not sent (directed to host)Īs it turned out, the problem was a VirtualBox extension pack that didn’t match the version of my VirtualBox package.
