VirtualBox启动失败

2019独角兽企业重金招聘Python工程师标准>>>

    以前用的是ubutu12.04TSL，昨天一来兴致把系统升级到了ubutu12.10,后来悲剧的事情就发生了，virtualbox怎么也打不开了。每次启动的时候都会提示：

* No suitable module for running kernel found

后来经过查找，是因为我升级系统以后，vbox找不到匹配的modules了。所以需要更新一下它的modules配置，使他和现有的系统保持一致。

网上大致的解决步骤是：

sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose-source
sudo m-a update
sudo m-a prepare
sudo m-a a-i virtualbox-ose
sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv restart

一次运行这5个命令。可是发现sudo m-a a-i virtualbox-ose到这一步的时候总是进行不下去。后来有找到另一个解决办法把第四行命令 sudo m-a a-i virtualbox-ose换成运行

sudo dpkg-reconfigure virtualbox

重新注册virtualbox的一些参数，具体这行命令做了什么可以看他的更新日志:

通过这些日志可以看到，modules做了重新的注册和系统版本做了同步，问题解决。
