I'm trying to use virtualbox 4.3 from their own ppa's (https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads).
When i install this, i get:
But that headers package can't be installed, is it not in the repo?
Comically, there is already a module for that kernel version.
I'm running Ubuntu 13.10.
When i install this, i get:
Code:
Trying to register the VirtualBox kernel modules using DKMSError! Your kernel headers for kernel 3.8.0-23-generic cannot be found.
Please install the linux-headers-3.8.0-23-generic package,
or use the --kernelsourcedir option to tell DKMS where it's located
(This is also the output of 'sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup')
Code:
$ sudo aptitude install linux-headers-3.8.0-23-generic
No candidate version found for linux-headers-3.8.0-23-generic
