Here are the details it gave me as causing the problem:

Assuming that you are using Natty - in your Software Sources

W:Failed to fetch http:// dowload.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian/dists/maverick/Release.gpg

you've got two issues:

  1. a typo "dowload" - I would have expected "download".
  2. you are using a "maverick" repo - but are on natty.

W:Failed to fetch http:// ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc/ppa/ubuntu/dists/natty/main/source/Sources

There is not a natty repository availabile - you will need to change this to "maverick"

see my linked answer below

W:Failed to fetch http:// ppa.launchpad.net/elegant-gnome/ppa/ubuntu/dists/natty/main/source/Sources 404

There is not a natty repo available - can I suggest don't use this PPA?
