Sorry - I should have been more clear. Peter is correct. Synaptic will offer
the choice of installing 4.1 and will (as a part of that installation)
uninstall the 4.0 release. I installed it from Oracle's site, but synaptic
has the 4.1 build as well. I had mine installed before finding it in
Synaptic and wanted the latest release on the initial install of 11.04.
