Virtual Box 4.x problem after upgrade to Ubuntu 11.04

After upgrading to Ubuntu 11.04 from 10.10, you might encounter errors while using Virtual Box. Trying to compile Virtual Box throws the following error: Error! Your kernel headers for kernel 2.6.38-10-generic-pae cannot be found at /lib/modules/2.6.38-10-generic-pae/build or /lib/modules/2.6.38-10-generic-pae/source. You have to run the following command: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) followed by: sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup This will rebuild Virtual Box from its sources.
