Ok, so I got fed up trying to get the NVIDIA drivers working
again in <strong style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border:
0px none; outline: 0px none; font-size: 13px;
vertical-align: baseline; background-color: rgb(243, 243,
243); color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family:
Ubuntu,sans-serif; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal;
letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 19px; orphans: 2;
text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal;
widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;">Oneiric Ocelot, so I ran the
command line distro updater... marvelous, I've got X back.
But I've lost VirtualBox!!!!!<br>

From the popup window....<br>

<p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;">The VirtualBox Linux
kernel driver (vboxdrv) is either not loaded or there is a
permission problem with /dev/vboxdrv. Please reinstall the
kernel module by executing<br>

<br>
Please run this from terminal;<br>

sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup<br>

as root. If it is available in your distribution, you should
install the DKMS package first. This package keeps track of
Linux kernel changes and recompiles the vboxdrv kernel
module if necessary.</p>

I am not really that knowledgeable about kernal stuff ...
HELP!<br>
