Hello!

I have jast succefully installed und startet VirtualBox on my UbuntuStudio.

This is the Instruction:
http://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?t=2426&highlight=realtime

"Well, went back to googling and followed a suggestion to use the binary
package from the virtualbox site.

My fix was:
- Use synaptic to uninstall Virtualbox OSE packages from the Ubuntu Repos.
- Download and install the Gutsy Deb. (Personal + Eval binary, NOT OSE)."

My comment:

Then you must
1. add you [and root] to "vboxusers",
2. Automatically load the kernel module:

|sudo gedit /etc/modules|

Then add:

|vboxdrv|

Regards, Vadim Hesse
