Public bug reported:

Hello Ubuntu Team,
I already reported one of bug related to my new Ubuntu 16.04 installation [1], 
which has to do with the touchpad not working at all after fresh installation 
of ubuntu 16.04.

Now I installed the Oracle Virtualbox VM following the instructions given here 
[2], however it failed to boot, throwing this error-message [3]. 
The output of 'sudo /sbin/vboxconfig' is given in [4], the dmesg output could 
be find in attachment as text file.

What has been asked in the instructions does not have any output:
pooja@X1-Carbon-6:~/Downloads$ cat /proc/version_signature > version.log
pooja@X1-Carbon-6:~/Downloads$  sudo lspci -vnvn > lspci-vnvn.log
pooja@X1-Carbon-6:~/Downloads$ 

Any guidence how to fix this bug is appreciated.

Thanks
