From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

6.1 is the newest version included in your OS. That's just how Linux works.
Downloading newer versions from somewhere else is sometimes possible, but can lead to a lot of headaches, especially with packages that interact with the kernel.
If you notice you keep running into this issue and using the newest stuff is important to you, consider switching to OpenSUSE Tumbleweed. It's the most beginner-friendly rolling release distro.
No, in addition to having a broken UI, it's still giving me the same error message.
reinstall virtualbox-dkms (from your repo), disable secure boot in BIOS and reboot.
If that doesn't work, I'm out of ideas.
I already tried that yesterday and it didn't work. It's not that big of a problem though because both Gnome Boxes and virt-manager are working fine. So I wont need VirtualBox anymore.
