quickpg the existing  modules then try the remove/reinstall fix. You can then use "emerge -K =package" or even a manually reinstall (by coping them over the newer ones) to replace the modules if things don't work out. I would think in your case needing to keep kernel specific modules around

I mean that as: just reinstall Virtualbox as a first troubleshooting step. If that works, great. If it doesn’t, then that can be marked off the list as something that was tried. On Sat, Nov 27, 2021 at 8:21 AM Wols Lists wrote: > On 27/11/2021 13:03, Jeremy Hendricks wrote: > > I’d recommend
