You should install -dev packages for your choice of MPI - e.g libmpich-dev, lam4-dev, openmpi-dev, with corresponding library. On 6.06 they may have slightly different names. There is another choice to build mpi - download source paskages for newer ubuntu distro's and rebuild them for older (backporting) - look for pbuilder and prevu packages - they do it almost automagically.
