The virtualbox in the repo is 1 version older than from the website   I.E 6-7  I am using vb 7 in 5-6 laptops with guest additions and bridged network on some and NAT  on others as need for each project
while virtualbox is based on qemu it not fully open source if that matters but it is one of the easiest to use IMHO tho I have many proxmox machines for work they have many more options with less overhead
in short if you need screen resolution or sound or usb use virtualbox.. If you need help I will be online at the installfest bbb.azloco.net 10am to 4pm Sat----  first and third saterdays

According to this page virtualbox is in the repository: https://linuxhint.com/install-setup-virtualbox-ubuntu-22-04/
You need the kernel headers and kernel development packages installed to create the modules it needs to run. 
Installing the one in the repository will probably do that.

Hi,

If you have been following my VirtualBox adventure you know I cannot get
VirtualBox to work on Kubuntu 22.04....  It does work on Win 10.

VirtualBox was an interim step...  I was hoping to use VB until I can
pull together some cash to build a Proxmox machine.

My Win 10 box died last week and I think it is just that Windows got
corrupted. It is an i5 with 4 cores and 4 threads and 16Gb of RAM.  For
the hard drive I have an 1TB SSD.  This was my daily driver. I moved to
win about 6 years ago for business reasons.

I am thinking of loading Proxmox on this computer and just moving
forward.

I watched a video on Proxmox and it looks simple enough.

My needs are simple.  I am a PHP developer and want to make 4 or 5
virtual machines for testing.  One two machines will be active at any
given time. I assume I will need 2vCPU's and 2 - 4 GB of RAM per VM.

Basically I need to configure each VM to have a static IP on my network
so I can access the VM using SSH, Filezilla, and Visual Studio Code. 
Your basic LAMP and LEMP stack PHP development and testing.

Any thoughts are very much appreciated.

Keith
