There is no device /dev/vboxdrv any more. Running /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup
give the following errors:
cp: missing destination file operand after `/tmp/vbox.1/Module.symvers'
Try `cp --help' for more information.

Any more suggestions? I tried a complete reinstall of 1.4.0, but did not make
any difference.
