Kernel driver not installed (error in suplibOsInit) when starting VM

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Hi!

I have solved, by installing "virtualbox-source".

Thanks

Gianni!

Hi Gianni,

Thanks for the suggestion but it doesn't seem to fix it for me :-( In
any case, you shouldn't have to install the -source package for the app
to work.

Cheers,

Bruno
