Asked By Jaclyn Andree 20 points N/A Posted on - 09/01/2012

Hi,

I need help with Virtualbox. Already the Virtualbox-dkms package is installed. But sudo modprobe vboxdrv displayed that vboxdrv is NOT set up. Then I try to re-setup. But I got the same error.

After that I uninstalled as well as re-installed Virtualbox with all helpful packages.

However same error message came.

Please install the vertualbox-drms package and execute

'modprobe vboxdrv' as root.

Hello,

I think that you are having a compatibility error, you have to check if the virtual box that you have downloaded and installed in your computer is compatible to your current operating system because if you have this problem even if how many times you are going to uninstall and reinstall the software still you will get the same problem. I suggest that you download it with the package of the compatible operating system that you need.

 Hope this will help you a lot.
