Public bug reported: VirtualBox can't run any VM, telling me this:
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 the kernel module by executing '/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup' as root. If it is available in your distribution, you should install the DKMS package first. This package keeps track of Linux kernel changes and recompiles the vboxdrv kernel module if necessary. Therefore I tried to reinstall virtualbox-dkms ProblemType: Package DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: virtualbox-dkms 4.1.12-dfsg-2ubuntu0.2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.5.0-25.39~precise1-generic 3.5.7.4 Uname: Linux 3.5.0-25-generic i686 ApportVersion: 2.0.1-0ubuntu17.1 Architecture: i386 DKMSKernelVersion: 3.5.0-25-generic Date: Fri Mar 1 12:29:54 2013 MarkForUpload: True PackageArchitecture: all PackageVersion: 4.1.12-dfsg-2ubuntu0.2 SourcePackage: virtualbox Title: virtualbox-dkms 4.1.12-dfsg-2ubuntu0.2: virtualbox kernel module failed to build UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) VirtualBox.ModInfo: ** Affects: virtualbox (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: apport-package i386 precise -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1137599 Title: tried to fix virtualbox problem: uninstalled and re-installed virtualbox-dkms To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/virtualbox/+bug/1137599/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
