Hello all, thanks again for this great distro!
VirtualBox was working until a recent upgrade, now I get the following message when I try to open a VM in VirtualBox:
Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908)
The VirtualBox Linux kernel driver (vboxdrv) is either not loaded or there is a permission problem with /dev/vboxdrv. Please reinstall the kernel module ...
virtualbox-bin and virtualbox-modules are installed:
# eix virtualbox
[I] app-emulation/virtualbox-bin
Installed versions: 6.0.4.128413^m{tbz2}(03:52:52 01/03/19)(additions chm -headless -python -rdesktop-vrdp -sdk -vboxwebsrv PYTHON_TARGETS="python2_7")
[I] app-emulation/virtualbox-modules
Installed versions: 6.0.4{tbz2}(12:19:47 26/03/19)(-pax_kernel KERNEL="linux")
I tried adding the following to /etc/conf.d/modules
modules="vboxdrv vboxnetflt vboxnetadp vboxpci"
but I get
# /etc/init.d/modules restart

I am not sure how to add these, any suggestions would be very welcome! A re-install of virtualbox-bin and virtualbox-modules did not help.
Thanks, Bill
