I have not metapackage named 'linux-headers-generic' installed.
I tried to install it now, it installed three packages
'linux-headers-2.6.38-15', 'linux-headers-2.6.38-15-generic',
'linux-headers-generic' and ran dkms:
{
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic

I can't understand why 'linux-headers-generic' package was not installed on my

May be because of this I have problems with Virtualbox on any kernel update...
