  • VBox on 14.04: Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908) [duplicate]

    1 answer



I'm trying to install Red Hat Enterprise Linux using VirtualBox in Ubuntu 17.10.



I have successfully installed it. But while running I'm getting the following error message:



enter image description here



I tried many times running the suggested command:



sudo /sbin/vboxconfig


But then I receive this error:



vboxdrv.sh: Building VirtualBox kernel modules.
vboxdrv.sh: failed: modprobe vboxdrv failed. Please use 'dmesg' to find out why.

There were problems setting up VirtualBox. To re-start the set-up process, run
 /sbin/vboxconfig
as root.

          How to enroll fingerprints to Ubuntu 17.10 with VFS491

          Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 1 down vote favorite I decided to switch from Windows to Ubuntu 17.10, I meet it like 8 years ago and I didn't decided to switch until now (haha). Well, my actual device is an HP Probook 4540s with a Validity fingerprint sensor (VFS491). The fingerprint sensor worked fine on Windows but I can't get it to work in Ubuntu. The device is recognized as 138a:003d but is not detected as a fingerprint scanner by some apps like Fingerprint GUI. I want to use the fingerprint scanner to log in into my user account in Ubuntu but it doesn't supports fingerprints without special software and the drivers of the fingerprint scanner are available for Windows but not for any Linux distribution. I found something on GitHub (https://github.com/eekpie/libfprint) about the integration of the VFS491 in libfprint and I think it can help but I don't know what to do with it, so that's why I need the help of the community to do it since I am...
