What about to use:

linux-headers-2.6-686 [i386] | linux-headers-2.6-amd64 [amd64] \
| linux-headers-generic [i386, amd64] | linux-headers

This will reduce delta between Ubuntu and Debian.

I was wrong, we don't need to remove comments in the old /etc/modprobe.d/dkms,
dkms didn't have dkms.conf in the previous version, and we don't install
/etc/modprobe.d/dkms.conf anymore.
