Install virtualbox 4.1.4 on ubuntu 11.04

You need to edit /etc/apt/sources.list

gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list



Add the following line

deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian natty contrib



For ubuntu 10.10 users add the following line

deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian maverick contrib non-free



Save and exit the file

wget -q http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian/oracle_vbox.asc -O- | sudo apt-key add -



Update source list

sudo apt-get update



Install virtualbox

sudo apt-get install virtualbox-4.1



Note: Ubuntu/Debian users might want to install the dkms package to ensure that the VirtualBox host kernel modules (vboxdrv, vboxnetflt and vboxnetadp) are properly updated if the linux kernel version changes during the next apt-get upgrade. For Debian it is available in Lenny backports and in the normal repository for Squeeze and later. The dkms package can be installed through the Synaptic Package manager or through the following command:

sudo apt-get install dkms
