Virtualbox Kernel driver not installed

General system Kernel, boot, graphics & hardware

Despite following the Arch Wiki steps, I still get the following:
Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908)

The VirtualBox Linux kernel driver is either not loaded or not set up correctly. Please try setting it up again by executing

‘/sbin/vboxconfig’

as root.

If your system has EFI Secure Boot enabled you may also need to sign the kernel modules (vboxdrv, vboxnetflt, vboxnetadp, vboxpci) before you can load them. Please see your Linux system’s documentation for more information.

where: suplibOsInit what: 3 VERR_VM_DRIVER_NOT_INSTALLED (-1908) - The support driver is not installed. On linux, open returned ENOENT.

After some tinkering, I realized that the kernel has to match vboxdrv version.
In short, I needed to perform a system update!

That is all
