ubuntu virtualbox升级内核后…

ubuntu virtualbox升级内核后不能用的解决办法

Ubuntu Google 

 

今天升级了最新的内核2.6.24-18,升级后virtualbox又不能用了，出现如下提示：

 

Java代码  

1. 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, e.g. virtualbox-ose-modules-generic..  
2. VBox status code: -1908 (VERR_VM_DRIVER_NOT_INSTALLED).  
3.   
4.   
5. 返回 代码:  
6. 0x80004005  
7. 组件:  
8. Console  
9. 界面:  
10. IConsole {1dea5c4b-0753-4193-b909-22330f64ec45}  
11.   
12.    

 

google一把，找到了解决办法，验证过好使。

 方法1

其实就是重新通过module-assistant来重新编绎一下模块

 

Js代码  

1. sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose-source  
2. sudo m-a update  
3. sudo m-a prepare  
4. sudo m-a a-i virtualbox-ose  
5. sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv restart   

 

能过以上几步后，就可以使用virtualbox了。

方法2

====================================================================

今天更新系统，结果busybox起不来了，一顿折腾啊。运行图形界面的busybox，报出来的错误主要内容是下面让执行这句话：

    '/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup'

结果就是悲剧啊，我根本没找到这个文件，更没什么好执行的了。

命令行运行提示如下：

elta@elta:~$ virtualbox 

WARNING: The character device /dev/vboxdrv does not exist.

          Please install the virtualbox-ose-dkms package and the appropriate

          headers, most likely linux-headers-generic.

          You will not be able to start VMs until this problem is fixed.

提示安装 virtualbox-ose-dkms，后来证明这个包对我来说没有意义，不装也OK。第二句话说很可能是我头文件有问题。事实证明确实是这个样子。

elta@elta:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure virtualbox

virtualbox           virtualbox-dkms       virtualbox-ose-dkms   virtualbox-qt

elta@elta:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure virtualbox

  * Stopping VirtualBox kernel modules                                                   [ OK ] 

  * Starting VirtualBox kernel modules                     * No suitable module for running kernel found

                                                                                        [fail]

invoke-rc.d: initscript virtualbox, action "restart" failed.

错误提示没有找到相应的内核模块。

在这里我说一下我这边的错误原因，其实就是它提示的，没有找到相应的内核模块。

内核需要有：

linux-headers-版本号

linux-headers-版本号-generic

linux-image-版本号-generic

linux-image-extra-版本号-generic

这里几个文件的版本号要一致才行，之前我这边是版本号不一致，导致了无法找到相应的内核。用 sudo aptitude安装相应的模块，我装的是 3.5.0-20 。 警告：操作有风险，行动须谨慎！初学者切记切记

安装完内核之后，要重新config一下。

elta@elta:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure virtualbox-dkms
