Just above comment 15 Mathew Hodson (mathew-hodson) changed the Ubuntu Trusty status to: Invalid → Won't Fix. Why is this?
This is broken on one of my Trusty systems.
My system is as follows:
> $ uname -a
> Linux hostname 4.4.0-143-generic #169~14.04.2-Ubuntu SMP Wed Feb 13 15:00:41 UTC 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

If I try to load a virtual machine I immediately get a GUI error message box popup stating:
> VirtualBox - Error in suplibOsinit
>
> The VirtualBox Linux kernel driver (vboxdrv) is either not loaded or there is a permission problem with /dev/vboxdrv. ...
If I reboot into the previously installed kernel (4.4.0-142-generic), I do not get the error and can successfully run my virtual machine.

If I reboot into the previously installed kernel (4.4.0- 142-generic) , I do not get the error and can successfully run my virtual machine.
Note the output of the following commands:
> $ find /lib -name "*vboxdrv*" 4.4.0-142- generic/ updates/ dkms/vboxdrv. ko
> /lib/modules/
>
> $ ls -1 /lib/modules/
> 4.4.0-142-generic
> 4.4.0-143-generic
The vboxdrv module is present for the -142 kernel but not the -143
Please can this also be fixed for Trusty.
