Cool I can see your point here my Friend.
so here is the on the way for you.

First add to your source list that:

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/webupd8team/y- ... ger/ubuntu natty main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/webupd8team/y- ... ger/ubuntu natty main

https://launchpad.net/~webupd8team/+arc ... lter=natty

Then save and close and open terminal and update/upgrade.
hope that will set you up here.
