VirtualBox 2.0.2 doesn't work under Puppy Linux 4.1rc

VirtualBox 2.0.2 doesn't work under Puppy 4.1rc(kernel:k2.6.25.16)
:(
Hi, i'm new here. :D
I'm currently using Puppy Linux 4.1rc as my new OS. I've downloaded virtualbox-2.0.2_k2.6.21.7.pet , sdl-1.2.9.pet and qt-3.3.8.pet. I've installed, everything went well. Rebooted my PC. When I go to Menu > Utility > VirtualBox Virtual Machine, it doesn't start at all! Open sakura and input:

Code: Select all

VirtualBox
then show below:

Code: Select all

WARNING: The vboxdrv kernel module is not loaded. Either here is no module  available for the current kernel (2.6.25.16) or it failed to load. Please recompile the kernel module and install it by 
           sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup
You will not be able to start VMs until this problem is fixed.
------------------------
I guess /lib/modules/2.6.25.16/misc/vboxdrv.ko is missed.
Please give me one.
thx.
