What should I do to run virtual machine? It was using it already, the problem occured only today. I forgot to install DKMS first, but I've done it after. I click that I want to register it now and appears the message about error 0x80004005, which prevents Windows to check the license for that computer (the message is in Polish, so I don't post it here.).

This package keeps track of Linux kernel changes and recompiles the vboxdrv kernel module if necessary. Users of Ubuntu, Fedora or Mandriva should install the DKMS package first. Re-setup the kernel module by executingĪs root. The VirtualBox Linux kernel driver (vboxdrv) is either not loaded or there is a permission problem with /dev/vboxdrv. I was trying to run Windows XP under Virtual Box (host system Ubuntu 10.04) and I've got an error message saying: Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908)
