Hi guys
I updated my Debian kernel and now I'm getting this error
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.
If the way how I installed VirtualBox matter so I as remember I downloaded 5.1.30 from virtualbox,org and install *.deb package. But I wish to use debian fork cause maybe it's more secure and I update it using update upgrade
Thanks
Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908)

If you want to use the latest version for your host/guests, you should also consider doing the same for VirtualBox. As of this writing, that would be version 5.2.4. Or you could try the latest test builds for the latest improvements.
No, it is not more secure. It's considered a fork and it's not supported in these forums. If you want to use the "upgrade/update", check the instructions at https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloadsgusowihi wrote:But I wish to use debian fork cause maybe it's more secure and I update it using update upgrade
