Hi everyone:
When I try to install virtualbox I get an error from pacman which states:
:: nvidia needs linux>3.7
However, when I perform uname -a I get this:
uname -a
Linux localhost 3.6.11-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Dec 18 12:58:46 CET 2012 i686 GNU/Linux
What should I do? Thank you in advance.

Don't do partial upgrades, they're not supported.
Solution: pacman -Syu.
To be able to load modules (like vboxdrv) after that, reboot.

Thank you. I'll try and post the results.
EDIT: It worked. The system was upgraded and after that the virtualbox installation worked flawlessly. I rebooted the system and then loaded the vboxdrv module.
