46 Your old kernel could have it from an older installation of
47 virtualbox-modules, that module is no longer installed
48
49 % qlist virtualbox-modules
50 /lib/modules/5.4.80-gentoo-r1/misc/vboxnetflt.ko
51 /lib/modules/5.4.80-gentoo-r1/misc/vboxnetadp.ko
52 /lib/modules/5.4.80-gentoo-r1/misc/vboxdrv.ko
53 /etc/modprobe.d/vboxdrv.conf
54 /usr/lib/modules-load.d/virtualbox.conf
55
56 And the virtualbox.conf file contains
57
58 vboxdrv
59 vboxnetflt
60 vboxnetadp
61
62 No mention of vboxpci.
63
64 Does VirtualBox work?
