General Support / Re: Cannot run Virtualbox within Ubermix 1.08 because of custom kernel
« on: July 21, 2013, 05:40:40 PM »
I reset the laptop and did a re-install. The correct header files are now in place. I think what happened was that in the process of troubleshooting the install of Virtualbox 4.1, I had followed instructions posted on Ubuntu, which called for a purge of Vbox, DKMS and headers and re-install of DKMS and the headers before I re-installed Vbox. which caused me to install the 3.2 headers instead of the 3.8.5 headers.
Maybe the headers should be added to the repository to prevent the 3.2 headers from being installed if someone makes a similar mistake?
Sorry for the mix-up. It's all working now. I downloaded the smaller WinXP/IE8 VM and it is running now without any hiccup. Thanks.
