今天晚上在Ubuntu8.04下准备安装VirtualBox,发现“立可得软件包管理器”里面可以更新到最新的VirtualBox,于是把原先的替换掉了。 接下来按照正常的方法把环境配置好后,出现了两个另外的问题。 问题一:启动提示VirtualBox kernel driver not installed. 问题描述: VirtualBox kernel driver not installed. The vboxdrv kernel module was either not loaded or /dev/vboxdrv was not created for some reason. Please install the virtualbox-ose-modules package for your kernel and execute '/etc/init.d/vboxdrv start' as root. VBox status code: -1908 (VERR_VM_DRIVER_NOT_INSTALLED)。 Result Code: 0x80004005 Component: Console Interface: IConsole {1dea5c4b-0753-4193-b909-22330f64ec45} [bitsCN_com] 解决办法: sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose-source 安装模块源码然后 cd /usr/src 解压源码 sudo tar xjvf virtualbox*.bz2 cd modules/virtualbox-ose sudo ./build_in_tmp install 让他编译安装模块驱动 完成后 xiaoxu@xiaoxu:/usr/src/modules/virtualbox-ose$ sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv start * Starting VirtualBox kernel module vboxdrv [ OK ] 就可以看到加载成功了,启动virtualbox也没有问题了。 问题二:启动提示The VirtualBox kernel driver is not accessible to the current user. 问题描述: The VirtualBox kernel driver is not accessible to the current user. Make sure that the user has write permissions for /dev/vboxdrv by adding them to the vboxusers groups. You will need to logout for the change to take effect.. VBox status code: -1909 (VERR_VM_DRIVER_NOT_ACCESSIBLE). Result Code:0x80004005 解决办法: sudo chmod ugo+rw /dev/vboxdrv 或者 解决的方法: sudo chmod 777 /dev/vboxdrv 然后,VIrtualBox就能正常启动啦。
