1 Just recently switched to a backup machine and I notice the following.
2 Some time ago, I had tried Virtualbox, and uninstalled it. I still get
3 the following as the final 2 lines of the bootup process...
4
5 * Starting VirtualBox kernel module ...
6 * modprobe vboxdrv failed. Please use 'dmesg' to find out why
7
8 - I've tried "dmesg | grep -i box", and it shows nothing.
9 - emerge -pv --depclean | grep -i box
10 only hits on "busybox", "dosbox", and "sandbox"
11 - There is no mention of vboxdrv in /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6
12 or in /var/lib/portage/world or in /etc/conf.d/local.start
13
14 Any more ideas?
