I use linux-next as my kernel.
After the last update (I update as soon as new updates are announced) I can no longer run Virtualbox. I get the following error message -
Failed to open a session for the virtual machine Win7.
The virtual machine 'Win7' has terminated unexpectedly during startup with exit code 1 (0x1).
Result Code: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)
Component: MachineWrap
Interface: IMachine {5047460a-265d-4538-b23e-ddba5fb84976}
Followed by -
The VirtualBox Linux kernel driver (vboxdrv) is either not loaded or there is a permission problem with /dev/vboxdrv. Please reinstall the kernel module by executing '/sbin/vboxconfig'as root.
where: suplibOsInit what: 3 VERR_VM_DRIVER_NOT_INSTALLED (-1908) - The support driver is not installed. On linux, open returned ENOENT.
vboxconfig is not installed so the above fails.
I attempted to reinstall virtualbox - this gives the following output-

Can anyone help to get my Vitualbox running again please.
Many thanks
