thx, i tried

sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6-$(uname -r|sed 's,[^-]*-[^-]*-,,') virtualbox-ose

result is:

Setting up linux-headers-2.6-486 (2.6.32+29) ... Setting up virtualbox-ose (3.2.10-dfsg-1+squeeze1) ... Stopping VirtualBox kernel modules [ OK ] Starting VirtualBox kernel modulesNo suitable module for running kernel found ... [ FAILED ] [ FAILED ] invoke-rc.d: initscript virtualbox-ose, action "restart" failed. Processing triggers for python-central ...

(according to manual: https://wiki.debian.org/VirtualBox#D..._.22Squeeze.22 )

My installation:

amnesia@amnesia:~$ uname -a Linux amnesia 3.12-1-486 #1 Debian 3.12.6-2 (2013-12-29) i686 GNU/Linux amnesia@amnesia:~$ cat /proc/version Linux version 3.12-1-486 (debian-kernel@lists.debian.org) (gcc version 4.8.2 (Debian 4.8.2-10) ) #1 Debian 3.12.6-2 (2013-12-29)

you should install virtualbox from their site, using their instructions.
