virtualbox.org

Hi, all.

I'm new to Linux and wanted to use some work related software in Windows, but I cant manage to make VirtualBox work. I'm using Linux Mint 17.2 and the most recent VirtualBox version.

This is the error message I got:

RTR3InitEx failed with rc=-1912 (rc=-1912)

The VirtualBox kernel modules do not match this version of VirtualBox. The installation of VirtualBox was apparently not successful. Executing

'/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup'

may correct this. Make sure that you do not mix the OSE version and the PUEL version of VirtualBox.

I dont know why, but I cant manage to open Terminal to write this message. Can anyone shed some light on this, please?

Thanks!

You need to purge the install and start over. Make sure to use the official build from Virtualbox.org.

If you can't open a terminal start a tty window and do it from there.
