I'm running Xenial Beta 2 and trying to find something that works. I downloaded virtualbox_5.0.16-dfsg-2_amd64.deb. The new package manager won't install it and if I extract it there isn't any readme on how to build it. Am I to soon and just need to wait? Also somewhat a Linux newbee here. Thanks.

Use the links below to download the versions that will work. They are the official releases and not the fork from the repo of the OS.

As for installing, you use a package manager and I strongly suggest you use gdebi or at the very least dpkg. Their software center has never worked to my satisfaction.

After installing libvpx2 this worked fine. Thanks!
