I can confirm this problem still exists in 8.04. I went thru all the above tests and trials all to no avail. vboxdrv is clearly not getting installed. With no VMWare available, I decided to try VBOX, my uname -r is : 2.6.24-17-generic which differs from the above which indicates kernel 2.6.24-16-generic not 17 which is what was updated on my hardy 64bit. so as of now, there are NO working VM's for hardy. Just so no one asks, yes, I did install the virtualbox-ose-modules despite the lack of any dependencies of this.
