Yep, just checked my bash_history, and it looks like the steps to fix it
are just to manually run a "sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv start" afterwards
(to create the /dev/vboxdrv device with the right permissions now that
the group exists), and then add accounts to the vboxusers group
manually.

Since I assume that the /dev/vboxdrv entry is only needed by the kernel
module, could the module package itself create the vboxusers group,
rather than vbox-ose? Please note I'm not a package maintainer so I've
done zero work into pulling the existing .debs apart to see what
happens...
