I'm running Ubuntu 11.04 on Lenovo X120e.
I've made sure 'eric' is a member of vboxusers group.
I've installed the extension pack.
I've set the BIOS to support the hardware virtualization.
I've installed and run dkms--in fact, VB demands that it be run each time I restart the computer:
Once I run this, VB will open the VM. But after restarting Ubuntu and restarting VB, I get this error:eric@x120e:~$ sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup
[sudo] password for eric:
* Stopping VirtualBox kernel modules [ OK ]
* Uninstalling old VirtualBox DKMS kernel modules [ OK ]
* Trying to register the VirtualBox kernel modules using DKMS [ OK ]
* Starting VirtualBox kernel modules [ OK ]
eric@x120e:~$
And this:Failed to open a session for the virtual machine Windows7.
The virtual machine 'Windows7' has terminated unexpectedly during startup with exit code 1.

There is no /dev/vboxdrv once I restart Ubuntu, although it is there after I run 'etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup'.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
'etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup'
as root. Users of Ubuntu, Fedora or Mandriva should install the DKMS package first. This package keeps track of Linux kernel changes and recompiles the vboxcrv kernel module if necessary.
