And did you do the necessary change to the udev rules?
I.e. have you copied /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/60-vboxdrv.rules to
/etc/udev/rules.d and modified it according to the comments?

That's necessary with the openSUSE packages because of security concerns.

Actually not IMHO.
I consider this a bug in the KMP support macros, but haven't found out yet
where exactly.

There's absolutely no need to install the virtualbox-guest-kmp-xxx packages on
the host. (I even lock them on my systems...)
