Bug Description
vboxdrv failed to load.. Wanted to recover a VM from previous build, could not. Then wanted to build new VM, allowed me to create settings but will not start. Generates error message:
"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.
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."
And Sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup Generates: /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup
