you may have followed a wrong way to install it:
https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads
sudo apt-get install synaptic
sudo synaptic
purge all the installed virtualbox packages first (complete removal). Then add the source url (into synaptic source tab) to update the packages, and finally install virtualbox package.

what you needs:
deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian oneiric contrib
not natty as you have done (if you are really using 11.04 of course)
