This version fixed the crash for me, too. However, the vagrant version 1.8.1 that is shipped with Ubuntu Xenial isn't compatible:
The provider 'virtualbox' that was requested to back the machine 'default' is reporting that it isn't usable on this system. The reason is shown below: Vagrant has detected that you have a version of VirtualBox installed that is not supported by this version of Vagrant. Please install one of the supported versions listed below to use Vagrant: 4.0, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 5.0 A Vagrant update may also be available that adds support for the version you specified. Please check www.vagrantup.com/downloads.html to download the latest version. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1736116 Title: [SRU] Host with kernel 4.13 freezes when starting a VM with VirtualBox To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kbuild/+bug/1736116/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
