This is weird.  Using "urpmi --force" the command ran, but nothing was 
installed.

I cleared out all the Mageia RPMs, including dkms-virtualbox, and ran "rpm -
Uvh --force --nodeps"  That installed the 4.0.8 version, which compiled new 
modules. Then Virtualbox wouldn't start until I created a symlink to 
libcrypto.so.0.9.8.  I reinstalled the extension pack, but am still seeing "No 
USB devices attached" in the status bar for the guest OS.
