Error were encountered while installing Virtualbox on Ubuntu 8.0.4

[Victor Vahe Kevorkian]

I have been using Innotek Virtualbox version 1.5.6 successfully for a long
time, on Ubuntu 8.0.4
Yesterday I decided to upgrade to version 2.1-2.1., since it was in
Synaptics.
After selecting the download and proceeded to apply, Synaptic asked me to
remove vs 1.5.6 first
before installing 2.1-2.1, I agreed to apply.

The download went on and started the installation when mid way it stopped
and the following Error
poped out:"Error were encountered while processing: E:
/var/cache/apt/archives/virtualbox-2.1_2.1.2-41885%5fUbuntu%5fhardy_i386.deb:

trying to overwrite `/lib/modules/2.6.24-23-386/misc/vboxdrv.ko', which is
also in package virtualbox-ose-modules-2.6.24-23-386"

I couldnt understand why using Synaptic Package I was getting an error so I
searched Ubuntu Forums and I found this Link:
http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-virtualbox-21-in-ubuntu-810-intrepid-ibex804-hardy-heron.html

I followed all steps and I reached to : sudo apt-get install virtualbox-2.1
which proceeded until...
"The following NEW packages will be installed:

It seems to me the same error, which I really dont understand.

I lost version 1.5.6 and I am left with an error.

Can I have help please.
