<div dir="ltr"><p>Actually using sudo here may not fix the problem :( this problem because the virtual box needs to compile a module for the kernel. And to compile it u need to be installing your linux headers. i don't know whether you know how to install them or not ...but i'll give you the steps :)</p>
<p><b>#1</b></p><p>you need to know your kernel release which can be easily known by typing this command</p><p style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">uname -r</p><p>mine is <i><b>2.6.32-25-generic-pae</b></i></p><p><b>#2</b></p>
<p>goto synaptics package manger (System --> Administartion --> Synaptics)</p><p>you should find a package with the name <i><b>linux-headers-2.6.xx-xx</b> </i>according to your kernel release. mine is <i><b>linux-headers-2.6.32-25-generic-pae</b></i></p>
<p>just install this package, and re isntall Virtual box from synaptics :) <br></p><p>ISA, this will solve your problem<br></p><p>Keep Me Updated :)<br>
