Bug#682236: virtualbox: VMs cannot be started - kernel module error suspected - [10402.535241] ioctl32(VirtualBox:30222): Unknown cmd fd(11) cmd(c0305601){t:'V'; sz:48} arg(ffefb0f0) on /dev/vboxdrv

Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

I cannot start any VM. The error I get on the GUI:

RTR3Init 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.

(Which is the upstream error message which is wrong btw for the Debian package)

Within dmesg I get the same time:
[ 3919.887385] vboxdrv: Found 4 processor cores.

Each ioctrl32 line is for one try to start a VM.


I did many purges and reconfigures, but still broken.


Thanks a lot,

Thomas

VirtualBox doesn't support mixing a 64-bit kernel with 32-bit userland.
