Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-headers-2.6.27-11-server

Hi,

I just upgrades to kernel version 2.6.27-11. After restart virtualbox version 
2.1.2 fails to start. Searching a little bit in the internet I tried to
/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup
Recompiling the kernel virtualbox module failed with the error log 
/var/log/vbox-install.log:
Attempting to install using DKMS
  removing old DKMS module vboxdrv version 

Error! Invalid number of parameters passed.
Usage: remove -m <module> -v <module-version> --all
   or: remove -m <module> -v <module-version> -k <kernel-version>

------------------------------
Deleting module version: 2.1.2
completely from the DKMS tree.
------------------------------
Done.

Creating symlink /var/lib/dkms/vboxdrv/2.1.2/source ->
                 /usr/src/vboxdrv-2.1.2

DKMS: add Completed.

Error! Your kernel source for kernel 2.6.27-11-server cannot be found at
/lib/modules/2.6.27-11-server/build or /lib/modules/2.6.27-11-server/source.
You can use the --kernelsourcedir option to tell DKMS where it's located.
Failed to install using DKMS, attempting to install without
Makefile:143: *** Error: unable to find the sources of your current Linux 
kernel. Specify KERN_DIR=<directory> and run Make again.  Schluss.

It seems the kernel module recompile doesn't find the correct kernel
headers. uname -r  says 2.6.27-11-server but there is no package called
linux-header-2.6.27-11-server for MY architecture (i386). I only find a
package for x86_64 architecture.
