Can,t start VirtualBox on F19

2013-10-08 Thread Owen Orakwue


I am getting the error message below on a Fredora 19 system when attempt to 
start VirualBox 
Any help will be greatly appreciated :



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.

Thanks.

 I did and it complained that "modprobe vboxdrv" failed. 
And verified that 'vboxdrv' is not in /dev.

Hi:
Did you ran the

And what's the complete error ?
Looks like you don't have the kernel-headers / devel packeges so the
module isn't being properly compiled we need the complete log to
confirm it.

Make sure you are in the vboxusers user group.  Edit /etc/group and put
your ID there. For example:

vboxusers:x:1001:sdstern

You may have to logout/login after doing so to get the change picked up.

modprobe -v vboxdrv && modprobe -v vboxnetadp && modprobe -v vboxnetflt && 
modprobe -v vboxpci
