The Error `Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908)` may occur if
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- The computer was not restarted before launching VirtualBox for the first time
|
||||||
|
- The computer is not booted on the latest kernel. Make sure to apply the updates from the Software Center and restart your machine.
|
||||||
|
- The wrong VirtualBox package was installed. Please check the instructions just above to install the correct package for your kernel.
|
||||||
|
- VirtualBox was manually installed and it conflicts with the version installed from the Solus Repository. The below commands usually help solving this last problem.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
``` bash
|
||||||
|
sudo /opt/VirtualBox/uninstall.sh
|
||||||
|
eopkg li | grep virtualbox | awk '{print $1}' | xargs sudo eopkg it --reinstall
|
||||||
|
sudo reboot
|
||||||
|
```
