If you do get the chance to play around with this on another system, the
first thing to check would be whether the group exists at all.  "mount
-a" should not be necessary with our new code.  The permissions should
be set by the udev rule in /etc/udev/rules.d/10-vboxdrv.rules

which should contain the following:

KERNEL=="vboxdrv", NAME="vboxdrv", OWNER="root", GROUP="vboxusers",
MODE="0660"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb_device", GROUP="vboxusers", MODE="0664"
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ENV{DEVTYPE}=="usb_device", GROUP="vboxusers", MODE="0664"

Perhaps this fails for some reason on your system?

Regards,

Michael
