I am trying to install virtualbox and make it work but it doesn't seem like I can. In the image
you can see the output.



Command line output



If I run VBoxManage --version I get:



WARNING: The character device /dev/vboxdrv does not exist.
Please install the virtualbox-dkms package and the appropriate
headers, most likely linux-headers-generic.

You will not be able to start VMs until this problem is fixed.
4.3.10_Ubuntur93012


But virtualbox-dkms is already installed and at the latest version. So I tried to reinstall it and i got this:



cli output 2



Any help will be appreciated.



EDIT:



The output after reconfigure (@M.Tarun suggestion):



cli output 3



EDIT 2:



Also installed the sources as @Hmayag instructed, purged virtualbox and installed it again but I got the same problem.

I wasn't able to fix the problem with any other solution suggested, so I made a fresh 14.04 installation and everything is fine now.
