Running vbox 5.0.10 on linux mint 19.2. Just updated to kernel 5.3. Getting the following when I try to start a vm.

Failed to open a session for the virtual machine Windows10.

The virtual machine 'Windows10' has terminated unexpectedly during startup with exit code 1 (0x1).

Result Code: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)
Component: MachineWrap
Interface: IMachine {5047460a-265d-4538-b23e-ddba5fb84976}

Went back to kernel 5.0.0.32 and getting same results. Here is log:

Tried reinstalling vbox 6.0.10.

Got this on terminal:

bmaring@bmaring-HP-Notebook:~$ sudo /sbin/vboxconfig
vboxdrv.sh: Stopping VirtualBox services.
vboxdrv.sh: Starting VirtualBox services.

There were problems setting up VirtualBox.  To re-start the set-up process, run
  /sbin/vboxconfig
as root.  If your system is using EFI Secure Boot you may need to sign the
kernel modules (vboxdrv, vboxnetflt, vboxnetadp, vboxpci) before you can load
them. Please see your Linux system's documentation for more information.

Seems to work fine after updating to 6.0.14

That's an old and outdated configuration.

That was borderline supported with 6.0.12 or 5.2.32.

That's it!

If you want to use the latest version for your host/guests, you should also consider doing the same for VirtualBox. Download the latest VirtualBox. If that doesn't work you should try the latest test builds.

Glad you got it going. Marking as [Resolved].
