我无法打开虚拟机

Question

在最新的 Ubuntu 更新之后，我无法打开 virtualbox，在启动时它给我一个错误，说内核驱动程序没有加载或设置正确，我应该重新安装 virtualbox-dkms 包。

删除virtualbox并尝试重新安装后，出现以下错误：

即使我使用 grub 菜单从以前的内核启动，也会发生这种情况，任何帮助将不胜感激。

我还尝试使用 aptitude 从其他存储库中删除任何冲突的 virtualbox 版本，但仍然存在相同的问题。

Answer 1

这是因为 Ubuntu 20.04 将内核升级到 5.8，但是您从 Ubuntu 存储库安装的 VirtualBox 6.1.10 版本不支持该内核。

您有两个选择：

1. 使用https://virtualbox.org删除现有的 VirtualBoxapt remove virtualbox并安装 VirtualBox 6.1.16 。

2. 删除 5.8 内核并坚持使用 5.4.0-xx 内核。

恕我直言，第一个选择更容易和更可取。
