I have Ubuntu 22.04 installed in my desktop computer with an AMD processor, I've worked a lot with docker-dekstop in my machine without any problem.

I just recently installed VirtualBox in it and created a Windows 11 virtual machine. Everything went well until I realized docker-desktop and VirtualBox can not run together at the same time for some reason.

I have detected two different scenarios.

  • If VirtualBox is playing the Windows 11 machine, when I open docker-desktop it never starts. I just get this message and it never passes this stage.

    docker-starting

  • On the other hand, if docker-desktop was turned on before starting the virtual machine I get this error.

    VERR_SVM_IN_USE-err

I have already tried all of these solutions suggested in these two posts, but no luck so far:

If it helps, I also have the VirtualBox Extension Pack installed:

vbox-ext-pack

Now, I'm just wondering why this is happening and if there is any chance to make this work or if it is simply impossible and whenever I want to use one of them I have to stop the other process.
