If you have DKMS installed it will automatically update the modules when a new kernel
in installed. Works great for me.

From the doc referenced above.

*Note:*Users of Fedora/Mandriva might want to install the*dkms*package (not available on openSUSE) to ensure that the VirtualBox host kernel modules (/vboxdrv/,/vboxnetflt/and/vboxnetadp/) are properly updated if the linux kernel version changes during the next kernel update.
