kernel: linux-lts
kernel headers: now linux-lts-headers, before linux-headers

i installed virtualbox with this strange kernel/headers mix, it didn't work so i checked the headers, removed the newest and installed the lts one.

after that i got this error message on boot about kernel modules

i also manually removed and rebuilt/reinstalled the dkms module
