After upgrade when I log in, I have message pop-up on to right hand screen:
"VboxClient: the virtualbox kernel service is not running. Exiting"
Anybody know what it is or how to fix it? There are various posts about it
but non of them apply to Gentoo installation.
The drivers seems to be loaded.
lsmod | grep vbox
vboxnetflt 28672 0
vboxnetadp 28672 0
vboxdrv 421888 2 vboxnetadp,vboxnetflt
Is this a vbox upgrade or a kernel upgrade? If it's a kernel upgrade, I always
force a re-emerge of the modules.

It was a virtualbox upgrade (not kernel), the notification is on Gentoo host
system running VM.
I might be related to "app-emulation/virtualbox-guest-additions"
Unmerging this package solved the problem, no more pop-up at login.
