I have just taken the http://download... link offered above. Because I am running Kubuntu Jaunty as a 32-bit system, I chose the next-to-last (Ubuntu Jaunty x86) option. Next I chose to use KpackageKit. The product downloaded quickly. Eventually, I was asked if I want to install, and I chose the Install option. Now I have three dialogue boxes on my screen. The title-bar of the first says "Installing file - KPackageKit". There is a large bold "Finished" message immediately above what I would normally consider to be a "progress meter". It has a large blue button which is simply going back-and-forth along the "meter" area. The button-options (below the "meter") are "Details", "Hide", and "Cancel"; "Hide" is active. The title-bar of the second dialogue box says "An internal system error has occurred - KPackageKit". There is a warning symbol (exclamation-mark within triangle), the message "A problem that we were not expecting has occurred. Please report this bug with the error description." There are two buttons -- "Details" and "OK". When I tried "Details" -- to make this report more usable! -- my system "hung"; I lost ALL control, and NOTHING would happen! The final dialogue box simply declared that "An error has occurred." And it covered-up the other two! I would very much appreciate instructions for getting VirtualBox 3.0.6 to install and work correctly on my system -- and will gladly try to provide whatever additional information is requested by anyone who can assist. THANKS for your time with this message!!!
