[Bug 473987] Re: package virtualbox-ose-source 3.0.8-dfsg-1ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

[Daniel Hahler]

It appears you are running 2.6.28-15-generic, but haven't installed the
linux kernel headers for it.

Have you tried using the kernel provided with Karmic?

What's the output of "uname -a" (in a shell)?
