Dumb question: do I (perhaps newly?) need to have any special kernel
parameters to be able to run virtualbox?

Hello all,
Everybody told me to give up trying to update one of my guest gentoo
systems under virtualbox and *simply* reinstall it.
I did that and now, when I enter "xinit", x starts and then dies with
the message:
/MESA-LOADER: failed to open vboxvideo (search paths /usr/lib64/dri)/
/failed to load driver: vboxvideo/
Note that the vboxvideo module is loaded:
/$ lsmod | grep vbox/
*/vboxvideo 40960 1/*
/ttm 122880 1 vboxvideo/
/drm_kms_helper 217088 1 vboxvideo/
/drm 552960 4 drm_kms_helper,vboxvideo,ttm/
/vboxnetadp 28672 0/
/vboxnetflt 32768 0/
/vboxdrv 475136 2 vboxnetadp,vboxnetflt/
/vboxguest 335872 0/
but it turns out there's a vboxvideo_drv.so here:
//usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/vboxvideo_drv.so/
I tried putting a symlink in /usr/lib64/dri to that, but it didn't help.
Anybody have any experience here?
TIA
