Hi, can you please provide more details?

please remove all the virtualbox-guest-utils virtualbox-guest-dkms and
virtualbox-guest-x11
(they are needed inside the VM, not outside)
and do
apt-get install --reinstall virtualbox virtualbox-dkms and post the result
here
(or a simple
dpkg-reconfigure virtualbox-dkms)
after that an
lsmod |grep vbox
and
find /lib/modules/ -name "*vbox*.ko*" -exec modinfo "{}" \;
this will give me a clue about the kernel module build, and the reason for
having a bad /dev/vbox* device
also
ls /dev/vboxdrv -l
and last thing:
dpkg-query -l |grep virtualbox
thanks,
G.
