Updating kernel

[janule]

hi i use virtualbox on archlinux and after updateing the kernel i cannot run virtualbox : The VirtualBox Linux kernel driver (vboxdrv) is either not loaded or there is a permission problem with /dev/vboxdrv. Re-setup the kernel module by executing

'/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup'

as root.

but this command doesnt work: sudo: /etc/init.d/vboxdrv: command not found...
could you please help me?

Which version is installed? PUEL or OSE?

PUEL

Did you really run the command as you have written, 'sudo:'

There should not be a ':' at the end of the sudo comannd.

The correct command should be

sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup

yes look : in terminal - i write the command , am asked for a password and then it write the sentence with sudo:.......

sudo /etc/.init.d/vboxdrv setup
password:
sudo: /etc/.init.d/vboxdrv: command not found

Another way: Open terminal,

"su"
input your password
"/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup"

bash-3.2# /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup
bash: /etc/init.d/vboxdrv: není souborem ani adresá?em (means not file or directory)

Reinstall VB. Somehow, the module script is removed.
