hi list,

I have problems after upgrading a kernel on fedora 16


the current kernel:
Linux homelinux 3.2.2-1.fc16.i686 #1 SMP Thu Jan 26 03:38:31 UTC 2012
i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

virtualbox current version:
VirtualBox-OSE.i686                                    4.1.8-2.fc16

When starting a virtual machine I get the following error:

Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908)

The VirtualBox Linux kernel driver (vboxdrv) is probably not loaded.
If you installed or VirtualBox OSE package recently you need to restart
the computer for the driver to load.
Alternatively, you may attempt to load the driver by issuing the
following command with system administrator (root) privileges:
'/etc/sysconfig/modules/VirtualBox-OSE.modules'


the output /etc/sysconfig/modules/VirtualBox-OSE.modules :

ERROR: modinfo: could not find module vboxdrv
ERROR: modinfo: could not find module vboxnetflt
ERROR: modinfo: could not find module vboxnetadp

the other time I solved with the following command:

/sbin/service vboxdrv setup


the output is:

Redirecting to /bin/systemctl setup vboxdrv.service
Unknown operation setup


does anyone know help me?
thanks in advance
