Open Terminal and run the commands below to add Dropbox repository’s key.

sudo apt-key adv --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys 5044912E



create its repository’s file.

sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/dropbox.list


Then copy and paste the line below into the file and save it.

deb http://linux.dropbox.com/ubuntu/ oneiric main

Now Update and install Dropbox.

sudo apt-get update 

sudo apt-get install nautilus-dropbox


Done...!!!!!
