i wanted to install minikube and after the start command a got the following error text :

😄  minikube v1.26.1 on Ubuntu 22.04
❗  minikube skips various validations when --force is supplied; this may lead to unexpected behavior

🛑  The "docker" driver should not be used with root privileges. If you wish to continue as root, use --force.
💡  If you are running minikube within a VM, consider using --driver=none:
