hello

I updated my kernel to 2.6.21 and at reboot I had several problems of modules that did not load (orinico, intel_rng, vboxdrv, etc)

I solved all problems by fine tuning parameters in menuconfig except for the virtual box module :cry:

I do not remember which parameter I should change to have the vboxdrv module compiling.

any idea ?

thanks

donald

No need to set any parameter. You just have to
Code:
emerge --oneshot virtualbox-modules
to rebuild the modules
