I've installed virtualbox 1.6. This command "/etc/init.d/vboxdrv Setup" must be run as root at each boot. How can I do this automatically at each boot?

you only have to do it once:
as root in console:
unfreeze-rc.d
/etc/init.d/vboxdrv Setup
freeze-rc.d

Thats the correct why to update/install latest vbox + enable usb support (after reboot):

Code:

dpkg --purge $(dpkg -l|awk '/virtualbox/{print $2}')

unfreeze-rc.d

apt-get instal dkms

dpkg -i virtualbox*.deb

freeze-rc.d

adduser $(getent passwd 1000|sed 's/:.*//') vboxusers

sed -i 's|\(domount usbfs usbdevfs /proc/bus/usb usbfs -onodev,noexec,nosuid\).*|\1,devgid='$(getent group vboxusers|cut -f3 -d:)',devmode=664|' /etc/init.d/mountkernfs.sh
