You might want to change this some or I misunderstood. > -+ if ! modprobe vboxdrv > /dev/null 2>&1; then > -+ failure "modprobe vboxdrv failed.

This change makes sure the script does *not* insert the module at all. I think the original submitter was talking about using modprobe -n instead of find and not instead of the existing modprobe call. I like the idea of saving some time, but I think the find command gives some valuable information if modprobe fails.
