Description
On 4.15.0-108-generic my VirtualBox works fine. Upgrading to 4.15.0-109-generic seems to be a problem for managing Virtual Machines on Virtualbox 6.022 r137980.
VBoxManage as well as VirtualBox Manager seem to lock up when using that version. Virtual Machines just run, until you try to shut them down.
VirtualBox Manager doesn't update the screen anymore. VBoxManage just hangs. Only reboot seems to solve the issue.
I reverted back from 108 to 109 and everything seems to be okay again.
Not 100% sure if it is this upgrade, but it appears so. Thought I better report.
Which Linux distribution is that where you made the kernel update? 4.15.0-XXX is not an LTS kernel and - XXX a distribution specific update, likely a backport of sorts.
