![]() Vboxpci is needed when your virtual machine needs to pass through a PCI device on your host. More precisely, vboxnetadp is needed to create the host interface in the VirtualBox global preferences, and vboxnetflt is needed to launch a virtual machine using that network interface. Vboxnetadp and vboxnetflt are both needed when you intend to use the "Host-only networking" feature. You can also ad these optional modules: vboxnetadp, vboxnetflt and vboxpci conf file the names of the vbox kernel modules you want to add, such as: vboxdrv. If you Virtual Machine runs after that without giving you an error message, then you can activate the vboxdrv module permanently by going to /etc/modules-load.d/ and making a. ![]() To load a module manually (such as vboxdrv in your case), open a terminal prompt and put in : sudo modprobe vboxdrv ![]() If your vBox GUI starts without a hitch but get an error telling to install the VBoxDrv kernel module when you try to run a virtual machine, your problems are not related to installing the modules into your kernel but ACTIVATING THEM in modprobe which the module installation script fails to do. I had dkms and all the modules already installed and compiled into my kernel, yet I still got a module related error message when I tried to run a vBox virtual machine. Had this problem with vBox across 2 distros (Ubuntu and Arch).
