Install the virtualbox-dkms and the dkms packages. After that install
the kernel headers for the current kernel. 

To find out the version of the kernel 
$ uname -a 

or 

$ aptitude search  linux-image |grep ^i

aptitude search  linux-image |grep ^i
i   linux-image-2.6.38-12-generic   - Linux kernel image for version
2.6.38 on x

The corresponding headers package is linux-headers-2.6.38-12.

When you have the virtualbox-dkms and the dkms packages, the package
manager will compile the required modules while installing the kernel
headers. 

When done, start the virtualbox service:

$ sudo service virtualbox start

Now just  start VirtualBox.

Every time you will use VirtualBox you have to start the virtualbox
service. This loads the modules.

When the version of the kernel changes you will have to install the
corresponding kernel headers again.
