Remember my previous posts about installing VirtualBox on Ubuntu Hardy Heron?

It has been a while since I last played with it, due to other commitments. So, I wanted to install Windows XP on VirtualBox, and I stumbled across this error: VirtualBox kernel driver not installed.

Not sure what went wrong, could be some updates in between broke it, if anyone know the exact reason for this, let me know.

To fix, follow the instruction:

sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup
* Stopping VirtualBox kernel module
* done.
* Recompiling VirtualBox kernel module
* done.
* Starting VirtualBox kernel module
* done.

And I tried to start my VM again, it works.
