Thanks for what appears to be the solution. It installed without any grief, and I've been using vbox for about 2 hours without any problems.
Only one comment: I looked in my package manager to find the repo you listed. It appears to be there, but "launchpad.net" is in the link address right after "ppa:" I assume that this doesn't suggest a problem of some kind.
