"Running VirtualBox in a Xen environment is not supported" on "3.2.0-31-generic"
Reported by: | knightsamar | Owned by: | |

Component: | other | Version: | VirtualBox 4.2.18 |

Description
My uname -a output is
Linux machine.domain.com 3.2.0-31-generic #50-Ubuntu SMP Fri Sep 7 16:16:45 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
And when I do sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup the output is:
* Stopping VirtualBox kernel modules [ OK ] * Removing old VirtualBox pci kernel module [ OK ] * Removing old VirtualBox netadp kernel module [ OK ] * Removing old VirtualBox netflt kernel module [ OK ] * Removing old VirtualBox kernel module [ OK ] * Recompiling VirtualBox kernel modules [ OK ] * Starting VirtualBox kernel modules * Running VirtualBox in a Xen environment is not supported
But, running modprobe vboxdrv seems to fix the problem as as lsmod lists the module and I can use VirtualBox.
Attaching the vbox-install.log from /var/log.

So what is the bug report about? That VirtualBox cannot run in a Xen environment as mentioned by the installer? This support is not planned.
