Package: virtualbox-ose
Version: 3.2.8-dfsg-2
Severity: grave

/etc/init.d/virtualbox-ose start fails with:

Oct  4 09:27:38 blegrez kernel: [  247.934129] supdrvGipCreate: failed to allocate the GIP page. rc=-8

This is for sure true on i386 and does not allow rebuilding of modules too.

This is still the case, so we have no way to fix this bug.  You will
have to rebuild the VirtualBox modules.
