VirtualBox on BackTrack4 R2(Ubuntu)
 
Hi,
I've been trying to install VirtualBox on BT4 R2 (Ubuntu based distro), but getting the following error

Code:

dpkg -i virtualbox-4.0_4.0.4-70112~Ubuntu~maverick_i386.deb
Selecting previously deselected package virtualbox-4.0.

I then followed the steps written at h77p://www.backtrack-linux.org/wiki/index.php/Installing_Virtual_Box
Then to install headers, I tried running
Code:

dpkg --force-depends -i virtualbox-4.0_4.0.4-70112~Ubuntu~maverick_i386.deb
The output of his command was

Code:

Then, when I tried running it, I got

Code:

Warning: program compiled against libxml 207 using older 206
VirtualBox: supR3HardenedMainGetTrustedMain: dlopen("/usr/lib/virtualbox/VirtualBox.so",) failed: libSDL-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

:confused:

After that, I ran
Code:

uname -a
and an this command
Code:

apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.35.8
where 2.6.35.8 is the output of uname.
It's output was
Code:

Then I execute, ap-get update, install -f and upgrade commands. Then tried installing trhough apt-get as well as through downloaded .deb package. But still getting same errors.
Can anybody help ?

What version of ubuntu?

knudfl 03-21-2011 09:10 AM

Backtrack 4 is Ubuntu 8.10, AFAIK.

I.e. an Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick package is not supposed to work on BT 4.
