My ongoing experiences with Ubuntu, and later Mythbuntu, as a media center with MythTV. I'm also using the system for a virtual machine server, a mediawiki server and a general all around home infrastructure base.

Upgraded to Virtualbox 3.0

I notiec that Virtualbox 3.0 was released, so I upgraded my previous install using the directions from www.virtualbox.org. This time I went the route of editing /etc/apt/sources.list by adding the following line:

deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian jaunty non-free


Then adding the Sun VBox key:

wget -q http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian/sun_vbox.asc -O- | sudo apt-key add -


Then did the install:

apt-get install virtualbox-3.0


Then I also downloaded and installed the new 3.0 version of the SDK from the Virtualbox download page (which seems to have been updated to work with Python 2.6 btw).
