Joe,
the subject line is apparently wrong. More comments below.

I compiled the kernel module:
cd out/linux.x86/release/bin/src
make
sudo make install
No problems with modprobe vboxdrv:
# lsmod | grep vbox
vboxdrv 1768311 0
root has read/write access:
# ls -l /dev/vboxdrv
crw------- 1 root root 10, 55 2010-05-28 15:10 /dev/vboxdrv
The module is installed:
# ls -l /lib/modules/2.6.32-22-generic/misc/vboxdrv.ko
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 1915659 2010-05-31 00:12
/lib/modules/2.6.32-22-generic/misc/vboxdrv.ko
Any idea what's going on here to cause this problem?
Did you forget to load the modules?
sudo depmod -a
rmmod vboxnetadp
rmmod vboxnetflt
rmmod vboxdrv
modprobe vboxdrv
modprobe vboxnetflt
modprobe vboxnetadp
Though you installed the modules to /lib/modules/... it is still
required that you load the new modules. Oh, and make sure that
there are not old vbox* modules left in your modules directory!
Sorry for the inaccurate title, I just Googled this error and got the
error number. Unfortunately, the steps you have provided above do not
get me any further. I did not have vboxnetflt or vboxnetadp loaded
before, but even after modprobing them and even after rebooting the
computer (i.e. grasping at straws) I'm still getting:
# ./VBoxHeadless
VBoxHeadless: Runtime Error:
VERR_VM_DRIVER_VERSION_MISMATCH -- The installed support driver
doesn't match the version of the user.
I'm also noticing the following being printed to /var/log/messages,
which I should have included before:
May 31 04:22:01 epistaxis kernel: [

The last line is output each time I attempt to invoke VBoxHeadless.
I most definitely have the latest modules installed.
Kind regards,
Frank
