Hi Folks!
I was temporarily knocked off-line because of an incompatibility between Kernel
6.8.0-45 and VirtualBox 6.1.
Problem is something broke between the two. Solution is to upgrade to
VB 7.0.
I found this:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/1498202/how-to-upgrade-virtualbox-6-1-38
-to-7-0-on-ubuntu-22-04
How to upgrade VirtualBox 6.1.38 to 7.0 on Ubuntu 22.04?
The one answer (scroll down a bit to "1 Answer", semi-ignore the
comments to the OP) gives instructions.
For me a couple of the commands were a little confusing: looked like
three command lines but were really only two. Between the Ask Ubuntu
answer and the source post at
https://kifarunix.com/upgrade-virtualbox-6-x-to-virtualbox-7-x-on-ubuntu
-debian/?expand_article=1
I got things resolved -- I'm baa-aa-ack! <g> ...I did have a problem
with the USB devices (error pop-up on initial boot of the selected VB):

Add every user who needs to access USB devices from a VirtualBox guests
to the group vboxusers. Either use the OS user management tools or run
the following command as root:
sudo usermod -a -G vboxusers username

I ran the command. Another part of the quoted sources said to run
'newgrp' to update -- didn't work for me. Rebooted -- that worked!
