Description
I have installed Sun xVM VirtualBox(have tried virtualbox-ose too with repos's module and module compiled myself) 1.6.2 version.
accuser:/etc# dpkg -l | grep virtualbox
accuser:/etc# dpkg -l | grep virtualbox ii virtualbox 1.6.2-31466_Debian_etch Sun xVM VirtualBox rc virtualbox-ose 1.6.2-dfsg-1 x86 virtualization solution - binaries ii virtualbox-ose-modules-2.6.25-2-amd64 2.6.25+1.6.2-dfsg-2 PC virtualization solution modules for Linux ii virtualbox-ose-source 1.6.2-dfsg-1 x86 virtualization solution - kernel module
I have did vboxdrv setup:
akki:/etc# /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup Stopping VirtualBox kernel module: done. Removing old VirtualBox kernel module: done. Recompiling VirtualBox kernel module: done. Starting VirtualBox kernel module: done.
But when i try to start virtual machine I get error:
The VirtualBox support driver which is running is from a different version of VirtualBox. You can correct this by stopping all running instances of VirtualBox and reinstalling the software.. VBox status code: -1912 (VERR_VM_DRIVER_VERSION_MISMATCH).
with record in log:
00:00:00.361 VirtualBox 1.6.2 r31466 linux.x86 (May 31 2008 19:07:06) release log 00:00:00.361 Log opened 2008-06-21T13:50:28.331283000Z 00:00:00.391 Support driver version mismatch: DriverVersion=too-old ClientVersion=0x70002 00:00:00.392 ERROR [COM]: aRC=NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005) aIID={d5a1cbda-f5d7-4824-9afe-d640c94c7dcf} aComponent={Console} aText={The VirtualBox support driver which is running is from a different version of VirtualBox.

Important message is "DriverVersion=too-old".
I guess that problem is on my side(not with vbox), but log-message doesn't correspond to real situation(because I am fully confident in module version) and doesn't give any chance to solve problem in my system.
PS. i am on Debian lenny/sid

You are using a 64-bit Linux kernel with 32-bit Linux userland applications. VirtualBox cannot work on this environment. Either use a 32-bit kernel + 32-bit userland apps or a 64-bit kernel + 64-bit userland apps -- in the latter case install the AMD64 package of VirtualBox.

Debian Lenny i386 has basic 64 bit support. I installed the "amd64-libs" Debian official package and borrow some libraries from Debian amd64 packages. Thus, the virtualbox-2.1_2.1.0-41146_Debian_lenny_amd64.deb works fine with Debian Lenny 32 bit userland. (linux-image-2.6.26-1-amd64 + 32 bit userland + 64 bit multilib + 64 bit virtualbox)
You can request Debian Squeeze(Lenny+1) to provide "amd64-libs-qt4" to support 64 bit virtualbox in i386 installation. (Debian amd64 has "ia32-libs-gtk" to support 32 bit GTK+ and Qt4 applications.)
I forgot excerpt from syslog for moment of starting virtual machine
