I'm using virtualbox on ubuntu 12.10.

When I start virtualbox, it shows that VERR_SUPLIB_OWNER_NOT_ROOT.

I find that here is a solution. He used sudo chown root Applications. However, I do not find "Applications" after I enter ls -l.

What should I do?

Could anyone provide a solution?

You are mixing things up: he is using MAC OS. Not Ubuntu. The answer can be found here: askubuntu.com/questions/171684/… wich states the solution is in this topic ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2042143 (pay attention to the questions regarding listing permissions). – Rinzwind Dec 5 '12 at 11:32
