I downloaded the .deb file from virtual box homepage, it asked me if I wanted to compile the headers and I said yes. It seemed to install ok, but then I realized that my eth0 and my ath0 network interfaces were lost. I tried to use ifconfig eth0 up to configure my ethernet connection, but It is not working. When I try to use wlanconfig for creating ath0 interface, I get an ioctl error message. Can anyone help please?
Did you reboot?
Did you get any error messages when you compiled or installed VBox.
What does lspci -v show?
What does ifconfig show?
Might want to post these here.
Yes I did reboot. I also restarted the network with /etc/init.d/networking restart.
The output of ifconfig only shows the lo interface.
The output of lpsci -v is:

When I intalled virtual box, It showed an error message saying that libqt4-gui was not installed it, so I instlaled it. Then it showed the following message:
Code: Select all
? Unable to find a precompiled module for the current kernel! ?
? ?
? Without a suitable kernel module you will not be able to start any VMs. ?
? It is strongly recommended to compile a kernel module now. The kernel ?

I already executed /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup, but it did not worked, how can I solve this? Thanks in advance.
