Bug Description

$ sudo apt-get install linux-image-extra-virtual
...
Setting up linux-image-extra-3.0.0-12-virtual (3.0.0-12.20) ...
Setting up linux-image-extra-virtual (3.0.0.12.14) ...
$ modprobe drbd
FATAL: Module drbd not found.
$ sudo modprobe drbd
FATAL: Module drbd not found.
$ find /lib/modules/ -name "*drbd*"
/lib/modules/3.0.0-12-virtual/kernel/drivers/block/drbd
/lib/modules/3.0.0-12-virtual/kernel/drivers/block/drbd/drbd.ko
$ sudo depmod -a
$ sudo modprobe drbd
$ lsmod | grep drbd
drbd 273002 0
lru_cache 14896 1 drbd

Basically, installation of linux-image-extra-virtual above did not result in usable modules. I had to run 'depmod -a' after that.
The package should do that itself.
