Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: dkms
Using the latest version of Oracle Virtual Box from their repositories, every
day I have to run /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup because the ubuntu DKMS package is
not doing it's job.
This bug also exists using the VirutalBox package from the Ubuntu Repositories
so this is not an Oracle Vbox error but a DKMS error.
Expected behaviour
DKMS compiles the VirutalBox kernel driver automatically and recompiles
automatically at each kernel change then saves this kernel driver as a device
/dev/vboxdrv so that it's usable at each boot.
What really happens:
The dkms package does not complie the driver or give access, so every time the
machine (HP tx2 1050ed laptop) reboots, the kernel driver has to be compiled
manually (at 7 minutes of lost productivity)
