Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908) verr_vm_driver_not_installed

Question

I use Ubuntu 17.10, but I can't run any VM.

Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908)

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.

I have run sudo /sbin/vboxconfig, but nothing happened.

It works, I use it. Have you enabled Virtual Technology in the Bios? — EODCraft Staff, Nov 26 '17 at 11:13

Aha, the problem has been solved. According to this article virtualbox+Secure Boot+ubuntu=fail, you may need to install the package virtualbox-ext-pack.
