 Posted: Sat Jun 09, 2007 10:23 am Post subject: [SOLVED] virtualbox-1.4.0 on a amd64 host |
 |
|
I installed virtualbox on an amd64 host and when I start the application it complains that the module is not loaded:
| Code: | # virtualbox
Error: vboxdrv kernel module is not loaded...
Please load the module before starting VirtualBox.
|
So I modprobe that and get this error:
| Code: |
# modprobe vboxdrv
FATAL: Error inserting vboxdrv (/lib/modules/2.6.20-vs2.2.0-gentoo/misc/vboxdrv.ko): Invalid argument |
| Code: | # equery l virtualbox-modules

| Did you rebuild/update your kernel and forgot to rebuild the virtualbox packages perhaps? |

No. It did not work with my previous kernel so I built a new one, rebooted and reemerged the module and got the same error.

Thanks, I'll try that. I did see a mention of that in the emerge but I assumed it would not cause this type of problem...
[EDIT]That worked.  [/EDIT]
