F22 no loading Virtuabox kernel module

Man, I'm having a fit with F22 right now.  Still can't get grub to
recognize my Win 8 loader for dual boot, and now I can't get VirtualBox
to run.  Sigh.

VirtualBox had been doing OK until I did the most recent upgrades, which
included a kernel upgrade.  Then I got the ever popular "there ain't no
kernel mod" error.

Stuff I tried:

I removed and reinstalled VirtualBox and it's associated kernel mod
source (which seems present though the compiled kernel module doesn't
seem to be there).

Ran akmods, which noticed that VirtualBox kernel mod needed to be
compiled, and did it.  But it wouldn't load.

Here's the error from trying to load it using systemd-load-modules:

So... what's this key thing I'm missing?

Thanks!
