Hi,

You should try the following solutions:

1.    Type the following commands

sudo aptitude update
sudo aptitude install dkms
sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup

2.    You can also tryrunning it without the sudo.caver1

3.    Another option is to run this command in the /etc/init.d/ folder and paste in the output:
ls | grep vbox

According to me the first solution should work. If it doesn’t then you can try the other two solutions.

Hope you get your problem fixed.
