I've got installed oracle virtualBox v.4.1.2_Ubuntu r38359.
The program VM starts with errors:
WARNING: The character device /dev/vboxdrv does not exist.
Please install the virtualbox-ose-dkms package and the appropriate
headers, most likely linux-headers-generic.
You will not be able to start VMs until this problem is fixed.

virtualbox-ose-dkms is already the newest version.
2)
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
answer:
