==> Run \`/etc/rc.d/vboxdrv setup\` as root every time your kernel is
==> upgraded, to compile the module for the new kernel version.
And yes, '/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup' is likely hardcoded in virtualbox and does not reflect how your distro setup is.
The Arch Way is to put service script to /etc/rc.d/ instead of /etc/init.d
also note that the vboxdrv service script from virtualbox_bin is different from other distros
and that /etc/rc.d/rc.vboxdrv isn't shipped by virtualbox_bin (hence you get command not found)
in additions, vboxdrv from virtualbox_bin has only "setup" function

After rebuilding
/etc/rc.d/rc.vboxdrv start
or just restart
]]>'/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup'
as root. Users of Ubuntu, Fedora or Mandriva should install the DKMS package first. This package keeps track of Linux kernel changes and recompiles the vboxdrv kernel module if necessary.

/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup: command not found <---i pasted it to prove ive googled, wiki'd, and read the forums.. so what did I miss
I did that command under my user name, sudo, and root.. said command not found.. when of course its found, it worked before 1.i used virtual box just before the kernel upgrade, 2. why isnt this command working under root or any other way?
i just finished setting up windows 7 with the few apps i like. please don't tell me i have to reinstall virtualbox and lose everything..
ive tried rebooting, loggin in and out a few times.. etc
any ideas??? why what the WIKI says does NOT work at all??
