/usr/lib/virtualbox/VBoxTestOGL: /usr/local/lib/libcurl.so.4: no version information available (required by /usr/lib/virtualbox/VBoxRT.so)

Im running curl 7.29 and ubuntu 10.04

Ive got all the services running and have the latest virtualbox install in linux it seem to run ok as ive installed an os but when i run virtualbox in the terminal i get the above message and also when i go to turn the service off when i what to shut it down i get

  • Cannot unload module vboxpci

these are the services I run

/etc/init.d/vboxweb-service start /etc/init.d/vboxautostart-service start /etc/init.d/vboxballoonctrl-service start /etc/init.d/vboxdrv restart

there is obliviously a problem as I cant shut down vboxdrv or when i start it the vboxdrv also complains about the kernel modules not loading ??

yet its starts and runs and loads the installed windows operating system I installed whats going on

whats the error and how can i fix it and why does vboxdrv complain about loading and shut down kernel modules ???

Regarding libcurl: Apparently there is a local version of libcurl installed in /usr/local. The Ubuntu packages install libcurl to /usr. So removing this library will most likely resolve the libcurl problem.

Regarding the kernel modules: You cannot restart the vboxdrv service (which means to unload+load the vboxdrv kernel module) as long as other VBox services are active. So before you can unload the vboxdrv kernel module, make sure to stop vboxweb-service, vboxautostart-service and vboxballoonctrl-service. And of course make also sure to stop any running VM.
