Virtualbox always shows an error on starting a VM. (It's working on my Windows 10 but not on Ubuntu 18.04)
Once I was using Windows 10 on my laptop but when I realized that Ubuntu is far faster than Windows 10, I dual booted my laptop with Ubuntu and it's been weeks since I last used my Windows 10.
But today, when I tried installing Virtualbox and adding Android x86 in it, it just didn't worked....
my steps are given below:
Step 1. Installed virtualox from Ubuntu Software Center
step 2. Opened Virtualbox clicked over the new button and created a entry
step 3. clicked over the Start button
And it gave me below error messages:

and:

I knows that there are already some questions asked on the same topic but non of their answers are working for me and almost all of those questions are not active
I tried below commands and it gave me below result and those results also contains some errors:
sudo apt-get remove virtualbox-dkms
sudo apt-get install virtualbox-dkms
enter image description here
The error messages
Virtualbox was working perfectly for me on Windows 10 but not on Ubuntu; but I want Ubuntu and not a fan of Windows anymore...
dual-boot 18.04 virtualbox

Please don't post screenshots of the terminal. Always copy and paste the text in the question above and then format the text as "code" by hilighting the pasted text and pressing the { } icon above the edit window.
