virtualbox.org

Hi

I have installed Xubuntu Desktop 14.04 "Trusty Tahr" (XFCE + x2go) (64bits) and virtual box 5.1

When i launch Virtual Box i get the following message: And when i execute the /sbin/vboxconfig but it says i need some headers and when i try to install those headers i get errors:

In my terminal In vbox-install.log
I am new to the linux environment and I don't really know how to fix this.

Can someone please help me?
For info, I've used OVH Xubuntu Kernel instead of the original one.

Thanks very much

Kind regards
Elodie

sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) will attempt to install the headers that match your running kernel if they are available. If they are not then you are out of luck. Why are you using a proprietary kernel and not the stock one?

Oh no, really?

It's just that it is the one recommended since i was installing from their image.
It's not like i have anything installed on the machine yet (except post-install config and virtual box).
I might reconsider to start over and choose the proprietary kernel.

I will contact them first to make sure they can't help.
Thanks very much for your answer.
