I cannot make Virtualbox work in Ubuntu 10.04 (upgraded from Ubuntu 8.04). I tried both to install Virtualbox OSE from Package Manager and Virtualbox 3.2 downloaded from the Virtualbox site (32 bits version, as my OS). Installation is OK, but when I try to run it, I get an error message:
Error in home/…/.virtualbox.xml (line3) — cannot handle settings version ‘1.2-linux’.
Code: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0×80004005).
Got an idea?
Virtualbox would be good because it allows running some Windows applications or games. Wine seems useless, only a couple of applications run in Wine and practically no games. It keeps warning me about DirectX etc. I can't understand why Wine exists at all.
