First off, this is not the same problem explained in other posts (AFAIK), where the solution is running another command or find where vboxconfig is located.
VirtualBox version: 5.2.26
Ubuntu version: 16.04
Updates which have "broken" something: those between last week and today (2019/03/18)
I ran Ubuntu Software Updater this morning, after turning on the computer. Afterwards I tried to launch a Virtual Box machine (version installed via .deb, not the Ubuntu Software Center one) and got that famous error:
Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908)
The VirtualBox Linux kernel driver (vboxdrv) is either not loaded or there is a permission problem with /dev/vboxdrv. Please reinstall the kernel module by executing
'/sbin/vboxconfig'
as root.
where: suplibOsInit what: 3 VERR_VM_DRIVER_NOT_INSTALLED (-1908) - The support driver is not installed. On linux, open returned ENOENT.
After reading about the problem and understanding why should I do it, I executed it:
$ sudo /sbin/vboxconfig

vboxdrv.sh: Starting VirtualBox services.
vboxdrv.sh: Building VirtualBox kernel modules.
vboxdrv.sh: failed: Look at /var/log/vbox-setup.log to find out what went wrong.
Reading the .log, I see that the problem seems to be related with the "get_user_pages" function, and at this point I honestly have no idea how to solve it.

I have already tried every solution for similar issues with this error message but none works for me.
Anyone has had similar problems after last Ubuntu updates?
UPDATE:
I have completely uninstalled VirtualBox, restarted the system, installed VirtualBox again, and still the very same error.

I have already tried every solution for similar issues with this error message but none works for me.
Anyone has had similar problems after last Ubuntu updates?
UPDATE:
I have completely uninstalled VirtualBox, restarted the system, installed VirtualBox again, and still the very same error.
virtualbox
First off, this is not the same problem explained in other posts (AFAIK), where the solution is running another command or find where vboxconfig is located.
VirtualBox version: 5.2.26
Ubuntu version: 16.04
Updates which have "broken" something: those between last week and today (2019/03/18)
I ran Ubuntu Software Updater this morning, after turning on the computer. Afterwards I tried to launch a Virtual Box machine (version installed via .deb, not the Ubuntu Software Center one) and got that famous error:
Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908)
The VirtualBox Linux kernel driver (vboxdrv) is either not loaded or there is a permission problem with /dev/vboxdrv. Please reinstall the kernel module by executing
'/sbin/vboxconfig'
as root.
where: suplibOsInit what: 3 VERR_VM_DRIVER_NOT_INSTALLED (-1908) - The support driver is not installed. On linux, open returned ENOENT.
After reading about the problem and understanding why should I do it, I executed it:
$ sudo /sbin/vboxconfig
vboxdrv.sh: Stopping VirtualBox services.
vboxdrv.sh: Starting VirtualBox services.
vboxdrv.sh: Building VirtualBox kernel modules.
vboxdrv.sh: failed: Look at /var/log/vbox-setup.log to find out what went wrong.
Reading the .log, I see that the problem seems to be related with the "get_user_pages" function, and at this point I honestly have no idea how to solve it.
Building the main VirtualBox module.
