Re-compiling VirtualBox kernel module

After upgrading new kernel for my ubuntu, my virtualbox just stopped working and showed 2 errors messages.

I have to search for the solution every time the kernel is upgraded. So, this time I would like to put it on my blog so that I don’t have to google for it again.

By running these 2 commands virtualbox should work as before.

sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup
