VirtualBox on Deck getting error
So when I try to open up a VM on VirtualBox, it shows an error with the kernel driver not being installed. What do I do? I already tried running the command in the error, but it says command not found or path not found or something like that.

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.

you can use "boxes" for VM, however on SteamOS you'll never have a great experience.
