Can't Run Virtualbox: "Kernel Module Error"

Post by jackbuffalohead »

Hello everyone, I'm having a hard time trying to get Virtualbox running. I don't know what to do anymore.
When I try to run it, it says:

Code: Select all

The vboxdrv kernel module is not loaded. Either there is no module
available for the current kernel (3.11-2-486) or it failed to
load. Please recompile the kernel module and install it by
sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup
You will not be able to start VMs until this problem is fixed.
When I try to do what it says, I get:

Code: Select all

[ ok ] Stopping VirtualBox kernel modules:.
[ ok ] Uninstalling old VirtualBox DKMS kernel modules:.
[....] Trying to register the VirtualBox kernel modules using DKMS:Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 3.11-2-486 (i686)
Consult /var/lib/dkms/vboxhost/4.0.6/build/make.log for more information.

[FAIL] Failed, trying without DKMS ... failed!
[....] Recompiling VirtualBox kernel modules:
[FAIL] Look at /var/log/vbox-install.log to find out what went wrong ... failed!
Here is the log (it is huge):

So, what do I do? I've tried to google the problem and there were some "solutions" like these ones:
http://www.binarytides.com/fix-vbox-ker ... ver-error/
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/237 ... not-loaded

But I tried and none of them worked for me.

Does anyone know how to solve this?

Thank you very much.
