Thank you

Moved to LMDE forum.

What are you asking? Virtual Box is available and functioning in LMDE: http://packages.linuxmint.com/search.ph ... ection=any

These three packages are horribly outdated and uninstallable in the current LMDE. It's been so for about a year now (and I've told Clem multiple times to either delete or update them).

Users should get these packages instead:

Code: Select all

monsta@asylum ~ $ apt search ~ivirtualbox
i   virtualbox                      - x86 virtualization solution - base binarie
i   virtualbox-dkms                 - x86 virtualization solution - kernel modul
i   virtualbox-qt                   - x86 virtualization solution - Qt based use
