How should I proceed?

On my last step to reach 13.10, after the download and installation and removal of unwanted packages, and after the reboot, I received this message:

Sorry, a problem occurred while installing software. Package: i915-dkms

The details revealed:

Package i915-dkms 0.1 [origin: unknown] Problem Type Package Title i915-dkms 0.1: i915 kernel modele failed to build ApportVersion 2.12.5-0ubuntu2.1 Architecture amd64 DKMSBuildLog DKMSKernelVersion 3.11.0-12-generic Date Sun Nov 3 19:49:38 2013 Dependencies DistributionChannelDescriptor
