What kind of machine is this on? Virtualization appears to be disabled in BIOS - you will need to enable it for VirtualBox to function:

VBoxManage: error: VT-x is disabled in the BIOS for all CPU modes

Alternatively, if Ubuntu is already running within a VM, you may use the none driver: https://minikube.sigs.k8s.io/docs/reference/drivers/none/
