I confirm I had exactly the same issue and got fixed with cro workaround. fglrx driver driver is now working with Ubuntu 8.10 in dual head fashion.
fglrxinfo outputs:
display: :0.0 screen: 0
OpenGL vendor string: ATI Technologies Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: ATI Radeon HD 2400 XT
OpenGL version string: 2.1.8087 Release
The only difference after removing execution rights to vboxdrv is the output of dkms status, which for vboxdrv is "installed" instead of "added":
Thanks man! :)
