Stopped working after kernel upgrade to 7.0.0.28. An upgrade to VM 7.2 cause other dependencies to fail: Completely unusable at the moment until the bug is resolved. Otherwise, intuitiv, transparent, interesting, but these dependencies...
I got this error during the installation of any virtualbox package from the software manager. "Error while installing package: installed virtualbox-dkms package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 10". However, VB runs (at this stage haven't tested any ISOs though)). Another error comes from VB itself: Failed to enumerate host USB devices. Could not load the Host USB Proxy service: VERR_NOT_FOUND. Result Code: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0X00004005) Component: HostWrap Interface: IHost {e54f6256-97a7-4947-8a78-10c013ddf4b8}
It works but the performance is unacceptable. If you can, use either QEMU/KVM with virt-manager or VMWare.
Linux Mint 22.3 の場合、ソフトウェアマネージャーからインストールすると動きませんが、公式ページからUbuntu 24.04用をダウンロードしてインストールすると使えます。ダウンロードしたファイルを右クリックし、パッケージインストーラーで開くとインストール出来ます。VBoxGuestAdditions.iso は含まれているので別途ダウンロードする必要はありません。USBデバイスはマウントできません。ネットワークアダプターは仮想の名前ですが、ブリッジにすると繋がります。
Horribly out of date. Had to uninstall it since the version provided here isnt supported in the latest kernel (as of Feburary 2026)
Out of date. The latest version as of Nov 25, 2025 is 7.1.10. Any chance this package will catch up?
It works well enough, but I have to run the command 'sudo modprobe -r kvm_intel' every time I restart to make this thing work
It somewhat works but as of this review, it is fairly out of date. You'll want to get the latest from the homepage.
Doesn't work, crashes after installing vm. Install instead from Oracle's page
This is pretty amazing. I switched over to Linux from Windows about four months ago. It's been a bit painful because there are some apps that I just need to use - Microsoft Office in particular. I watched NetworkChuck's video "You need to learn virtual machines right now." It was extremely beneficial in seeing how to tweak some settings to make things work (even though he was running it on Win10 and I'm using Mint, most of the stuff applied). Once you get an OS installed, be sure to run Guest Additions under Devices to get more access to screen resolutions. It took a couple hours of tweaking but I now have a usable copy of Win10 that I can run in Linux to get access to apps that I need. I don't recommend for gaming - it'll be a bit too slow. But for light to medium tasks, it should be fine if you have a relatively fast and newer computer. One other note: my edition of Mint came with Vbox already installed. It's a much older version than the latest on the developer's website. But I recommend sticking with the version from the Software store in Mint. It's been tested and tweaked to work with your version of Mint. Anything else might be unstable.
Blown away that you can launch other OS'es from such app! For my basic purposes it works well and didn't require much setup at all. Unfortunately not useable for most of gaming but as a lightweight, easy to use VM, it does it's job well.
Please, Help Me !!! Failed to open a session for the virtual machine Ubuntu Server. VT-x is not available (VERR_VMX_NO_VMX). Result Code: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005) Component: ConsoleWrap Interface: IConsole {872da645-4a9b-1727-bee2-5585105b9eed}
Good virtualization program for running other OS in Linux Mint. Unfortunately it takes a long time to install on LM21.
Buggy as hell...terrible settings, no way to change to a dark mode... does random tasks when you never told it to, can't shut down properly. Disinstalled after 2 failed installs - do not recommend.
