[ubuntu-uk] installing virtualbox,couldnt, now errors!

[Michael Holloway]

Hi

Maybe just try running the following in shell/konsole in no particular
order. (Make sure you have synaptic closed)

sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get update
sudo app-get remove virtualbox

... and see if that helps clean it up...

Cheers,
Michael
