But when vboxdrv module is loaded - VirtualBox cannot be started, it segfaults immediately.
After that the VirtualBox process cannot be killed.

Weird. I could swear I did the rebuild (in fact, I even mentioned it in the changelog). virtualbox-modules package was updated 4 days ago, at must have new kernel (which was updated 13 days ago) at that time even though it was in Testing at that moment. /me shrugs Anyway, no excuses, sorry for bugspam. :-)

Forgot to add that the revuid indeed fixed the problem. Please close this report.

I'm quite sure that you just need to recompile the vboxdrv kernel module. Somehow they changed a kernel config option which makes the kernel module incompatible with the kernel. Please do
