2013-04-14 08:42:55 Ads20000 description Ran the command 'sudo apt-get install virtualbox' to install VirtualBox. I expected this to install VirtualBox without errors and I would be able to install VMs straight away. What it actually did was start up Apport and come up with some errors in Terminal while installing (seems to have installed though)... When I run 'sudo virtualbox' in Terminal, it says the following: Please install the virtualbox-ose-dkms package and the appropriate headers, most likely linux-headers-generic. You will not be able to start VMs until this problem is fixed.
