We have been running into an issue with Kernal Headers...

root@(none):/home/loren# VBoxHeadless --startvm "Windows Xp Media Center(copy)"
WARNING: The vboxdrv kernel module is not loaded. Either there is no module
available for the current kernel (3.2.0-4-amd64) 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.

so took a look to make sure my headers where correct..

root@(none):/home/loren# uname -a
Linux (none) 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.63-2+deb7u2 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Any suggestions on how to fix this or get around this just to host my little windows box for my personal game server?

Unfortunately there is no support for VirtualBox running on Xen.

While X is not technically a requirement for Wine, it is required in practice - at least for now.

Sorry :(
