Yours don't match mine! Here's my result:

Note that yours show 3.13.0-54 while mine are 3.13.0-36. This might be because I'm running a 64-bit system while yours may be 32 bits, however...

I fear we need help from someone more experienced with this than I am! I'm fairly certain that your problem is because there's something wrong with the installed "vboxdrv" module, but I don't know how to force it to be rebuilt from source!
