Hi,

oops, indeed I missed that

>I think it may be a different bug.

yes,

please try to rename the file (under .config/VirtualBox/VirtualBox.xml IIRC)

and restart virtualbox again

and also please report the output of
# ls -l /dev/vbox*

if it doesn't work, please post the output of
dpkg-reconfigure virtualbox-dkms.

thanks

"Someone once told me that time was a predator that stalked us all our lives. But I rather believe that time is a companion who goes with us on the journey, and reminds us to cherish every moment... because they'll never come again. [looks at log] What we leave behind is not as important as how we lived. After all, Number One, we're only mortal."

one of my favorite quotes... and movies! :)
