How do I fix Virtualbox Linux Kernel driver (vboxdrv) problem?

$

After I open Oracle VM Virtualbox Manager, when I try to start a new Windows machine, I get the following error message (see attached screenshot):

The Virtualbox Linus Kernel Driver (vboxdrv) is either not loaded or there is a permission problem with dev/vboxdrv. Please reinstall the kernel module by executing:

'/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup'

as root. If it is available in your distribution, you should install the DKMS package first. This package keeps track of Linux kernel changes and recompiles the vboxdrv kernel module if necessary.

Can somebody tell me how to do this simply?

Thank you,

A.
