Bug 268121 – virtualbox-modules-2.2.2 fails to modprobe

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Description Chris Holcombe 2009-05-01 14:52:40 UTC]

After merging the newest virtualbox-modules and virtualbox-bin I'm getting a failure to modprobe with the following messages:
vboxdrv: Unknown symbol add_preempt_count
vboxdrv: Unknown symbol debug_smp_processor_id
vboxdrv: Unknown symbol sub_preempt_count

Thinking it was a problem with the newest modules, I went back to the old 2.2.0 modules and got the same errors.  I'm using a 2.6.27 vanilla kernel kernel

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge virtualbox-modules
2. emerge virtualbox-bin
3. modprobe vboxdrv and check dmesg for error.

Actual Results:  
modprobe fails and says to check dmesg for the full error message.  

Expected Results:  
The module would insert without errors.  

Here's my emerge --info
