I haven't vboxdrv in the /etc/init.d/ directory but only virtualbox and
virtualbox-guest-utils.
I can't run these with 'setup' option:
~$ sudo /etc/init.d/virtualbox setup
Usage: /etc/init.d/virtualbox
{start|stop|stop_vms|restart|force-reload|status}
~$ sudo /etc/init.d/virtualbox-guest-utils setup
Usage: /etc/init.d/virtualbox-guest-utils
{start|stop|restart|force-reload|status}

I have installed dkms and linux-header packages:
~$ aptitude search dkms
i A dkms
i virtualbox-dkms
i A virtualbox-guest-dkms
~$ aptitude search linux-header
i A linux-headers-3.2.0-2-amd64
i A linux-headers-3.2.0-2-common
linux-headers-amd64
