Failed to start Kernel Modules and small Ubuntu resolution

[Muhammad Gul]

Dear Experts,

I updated ubuntu from 16.04 to 18.04 in vBox 6.1. There are two issues now.

1) In the start, a message is displaying: "[Failed] Failed to start Load Kernel Modules".
Please see hostnamectl command display below.
2) A small ubuntu screen displays in the middle, looks like a resolution issue. I tried VBoxVGA, VMSVGA, VBoxSVGA. For VBoxSVGA, sometimes it works and full screen displays but sometimes it doesn't.

Are both 1,2 are correlated and now we can solve it?

Thanks,
Muhammad

This cannot be answered with the information currently available. The problems might be caused from either side of the VM (the host or the guest). What OS/version is the host running? What exact version of Virtualbox? 6.1 might be anything from Ubuntu 20.04 onward.
Which modules fail to load. For more information about the guest you should run "apport-collect 1945559" inside the guest (assuming the guess can connect to the internet).

I'm marking this invalid for the ubuntu-advantage-tools package since this bug appears unrelated.

@Muhammed: It may be a good idea also to try a fresh Ubuntu 18.04 installation inside a different VM (with the same exact settings as this one) to see if it has the same issues.
