此 VirtualBox 版本对于内核 5.x 来说太旧了。您需要 Oracle 的 VirtualBox 6。
VirtualBox 6.0.4（2019 年 1 月 28 日发布）
这是维护版本。修复和/或添加了下列内容：
Virtualization core: support Shanghai/Zhaoxin CPUs. User interface: handle command line arguments to VirtualBox correctly (bugs #18206 and #18197) User interface: improvements to machine manager window, virtual optical disk creator, storage selector window and log viewer window User interface: various small fixes and improvements User interface: fix incorrect restoring of main window position (bug #18367) Audio: implemented time scheduling for the AC'97 device emulation to keep audio and video in sync Graphics: basic support for VMSVGA graphics device in virtual machines using EFI Network: fix occasional NATNet crashes (bug #13899) Network: worked around problems in certain PCnet drivers on old operating systems Serial: fixed connecting to pseudo terminals on POSIX hosts (6.0.0 regression; bug #18319) Linux hosts and guests: fix for building kernel modules against Linux 5.0. Thank you Kyle Laker
整体变更日志
首先，清除您安装的 VirtualBox 版本。
然后添加上游 VirtualBox 存储库，即sources.listOracle 的条目：
sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian $(lsb_release -cs) contrib" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/virtualbox.list'
添加存储库的签名密钥：
wget -q https://www.virtualbox.org/download/oracle_vbox_2016.asc -O- | sudo apt-key add -
最后：
sudo apt update && sudo apt install virtualbox-6.0
