Package: virtualbox-dkms Version: 5.1.10-dfsg-1 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
Dear Maintainer, After a recent dist-upgrade, VirtualBox fails to strart VMs with the following error message: > Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908) > > The VirtualBox Linux kernel driver (vboxdrv) is either not loaded or there is > a permission problem with /dev/vboxdrv. Please reinstall virtualbox-dkms > package and load the kernel module by executing > > 'modprobe vboxdrv' > > as root. > > where: suplibOsInit what: 3 VERR_VM_DRIVER_NOT_INSTALLED (-1908) - The > support driver is not installed. On linux, open returned ENOENT. I tried to run "dpkg-reconfigure virtualbox-dkms" which resulted in the following error: > Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 4.11.0-1-amd64 > (x86_64) > Consult /var/lib/dkms/virtualbox/5.1.10/build/make.log for more > information. The relevant section of the log file is as follows: > CC [M] > /var/lib/dkms/virtualbox/5.1.10/build/vboxdrv/r0drv/linux/mp-r0drv-linux.o > /var/lib/dkms/virtualbox/5.1.10/build/vboxdrv/r0drv/linux/memobj-r0drv-linux.c: > In function ‘rtR0MemObjNativeLockUser’: > /var/lib/dkms/virtualbox/5.1.10/build/vboxdrv/r0drv/linux/memobj-r0drv-linux.c:1067:18: > error: too few arguments to function ‘get_user_pages_remote’ > rc = get_user_pages_remote( > ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ > In file included from > /var/lib/dkms/virtualbox/5.1.10/build/vboxdrv/r0drv/linux/the-linux-kernel.h:98:0, > from > /var/lib/dkms/virtualbox/5.1.10/build/vboxdrv/r0drv/linux/memobj-r0drv-linux.c:31: > /usr/src/linux-headers-4.11.0-1-common/include/linux/mm.h:1326:6: note: > declared here > long get_user_pages_remote(struct task_struct *tsk, struct mm_struct *mm, > ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ > /usr/src/linux-headers-4.11.0-1-common/scripts/Makefile.build:299: recipe for > target > '/var/lib/dkms/virtualbox/5.1.10/build/vboxdrv/r0drv/linux/memobj-r0drv-linux.o' > failed As a workaround, I found that switching back to the older kernel version (4.9.0-3) works. -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.11.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=hu_HU.utf8, LC_CTYPE=hu_HU.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=hu_HU.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages virtualbox-dkms depends on: ii dkms 2.3-3 Versions of packages virtualbox-dkms recommends: ii virtualbox 5.1.10-dfsg-1 virtualbox-dkms suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
