So i upgraded Virtualbox wih Oracle's repository for Debian Squeeze to 4.1.8. It actually uninstalled virtualbox-dkms and a few other things. Dkms is only in Synaptic for version 4.1.0 and it wouldn't configure itself to work with 3.2, just kernel 3.0. All works fine though, with virtualbox 4.1.8, virtualbox-dkms 4.1.0 and kernel 3.0.0.1 but I'd like to use the new kernel.
I think it's a Vbox limitation for now though. I'm using all the Mint Lateset repositories. Something from the other day's updates also messed up Cairo Dock. I had to restore all my old settings to it. here's what Synaptic says was in the update,
