I just bumped into this issue on Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS However, when I ran sudo apt remove virtualbox-dkms virtualbox and then sudo apt install virtualbox-dkms it guided me through the MOK process and after a reboot, Virtualbox was happily loading again. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1574300 Title: Could not load 'vboxdrv' after upgrade to Ubuntu 16.04 [required key not available] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/virtualbox/+bug/1574300/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@Ed Peterson this bug is really fixed in 18.04 LTS release. I'm sad to see you go, but we cared and fixed it almost one year ago. (and such security feature was optional, and experimental, so people with broken systems were not really using the default path) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1574300 Title: Could not load 'vboxdrv' after upgrade to Ubuntu 16.04 [required key not available] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/virtualbox/+bug/1574300/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This is my first post. I don't like to post. However, I've used ubuntu and a few other linux versions for more than 10 years. I used to be able to build a VM, install ubuntu, and be running in about 30 minutes. Now I can't do that in a day (or unfortunately, sometimes days, or even weeks...!). I'm old school. Back in the day, if an install didn't work, I'd discard it, select an alternative, and move on. This particular problem, generating all this commotion, isn't quality work. I understand linux is a volunteer effort, however frankly, what's the point if it won't install, can't upgrade, and/or routinely breaks without warning nor apparent reason. I've lost all trust in ubunu, and now am looking for alternatives. This is a very sad commentary, routinely in past I'd recommend and implement ubuntu as a solution with great confidence, now I can't. I can't afford all the time and uncertainty in trying again and again to use this anymore. So, thank you all for the past ~10 years + of good, dependable code, and Good bye! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1574300 Title: Could not load 'vboxdrv' after upgrade to Ubuntu 16.04 [required key not available] To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/virtualbox/+bug/1574300/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
