I get a very similar error with UBUNTU 12.04 on my ASUS G73J laptop. After installing virtualbox and all of its dependencies I get the attached boot log...every time the service starts, normally at startup, it does not go in to logging screen before I hit strg+alt F8+F7....
After removing, kernel oops vanishes, absolutely reproducable... boot.log extract ----------------------------------------------- [ 1040.042979] vboxdrv: Successfully loaded version 4.1.12_Ubuntu (interface 0x00190000).
