VirtualBox kernel driver not installed. The vboxdrv kernel module was either not loaded or /dev/vboxdrv was not created for some reason. Please install the virtualbox-ose-modules package for your kernel and execute '/etc/init.d/vboxdrv start' as root.
VBox status code: -1908 (VERR_VM_DRIVER_NOT_INSTALLED).

when i go to start my Virtual machine i get this.

and i cant find

virtualbox-ose-modules package

and when i try to run it in the terminal i get this

The character device /dev/vboxdrv does not exist.
Please install the virtualbox-ose-modules package for your kernel.

You will not be able to start VMs until this problem is fixed.
