Public bug reported:
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.d/vboxdrv setup'
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
