I can't install packages via the terminal. For example: sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager
Doesnt work. It gives me:
Lser paketlistor... Frdig
Bygger beroendetrd
Lser tillstndsinformation... Frdig
E: Kunde inte hitta paketet compizconfig-settings-manager
Swedish there hehe, but basically it says the it couldnt find the the package named "compizconfig-sett.This problems occurs in several situations. Every single package i try except "upgrade" fails to find a package.
Also, the package manager "Ubuntu Software Manager" and Synaptic arent giving me any solutions. Same problems. Packages arent available and such. I have a working internet connection and the GPU drivers are installed. Everything is updated. sudo apt-get install update/upgrade is done and also done in the general update manager.
How can i install programs using the terminal and how can i use programs by using the terminal?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have been bashing my head against the keyboard for over 6 hours now i just got a brand new asus ul30v it uses Nvidia geforce G 210M.
I went straight to installing ubuntu 10.10 on the whole disc. when the installation was complete i was happy and logged in. only seconds after i logged in i was promted that i was recomended to install a driver for my graphic card, for 3d and such. so i followed the installation and was asked to reboot. so i did. but then ubuntu booted straight into fullscreen terminal.
While being in this terminal i have tried to purge and reinstall GDM amongst endless other things, including rebooting several times.
Not being able to do anything about it, i reinstalled, and repeated the installation of the driver. same story over again.
Bottom line is i have rebooted close to 30 times, and reinstalled over 5 times. ive tried installing from the terminal (excactly the same story). tried to download it from their homepage, then install it (couldn't install it because i had to turn off driver X and "terminate all OpenGL applications", wich i dont know how to do. tried googling it, but ended up worse than before..[url]
Im guessing i cant install the driver at all with ubuntu 10.10? i havent tried it with older ubuntu versions because, of course, i wanted the newest version.
I have barely been using ubuntu before, although i've had it dualbooted.
I have found alot of posts with people getting stuck in terminal on boot, but none of the solutions that worked for them worked for me, probably because they had different problems than me.
My commands like
ifconfig
nano
etc dont work in terminal. This is my first attempt trying openSUSE and I have been using ubuntu, linux mint and backtrack 4 r2 before.
I upgraded to 11.04, but the updgrade crashed, and now it has some errors with Unity crashing every time I open a terminal. Is there any way to re-install without having to reconfigure all my programs? I am running a dual-boot.

How to navigate into a folder in terminal (like when you have Windows xp os there would be something like Mycomputer/Localdisk/ProgramFiles/Lol/Lol.exe)?
Can you give me a site that lists all the commands that ubuntu has?
I've always been a Microsoft *****, in that my main operating system has always been Windows. I have decided that it is time to learn Linux, as I am in college working to become a network administrator, and realize that Red Hat and Ubuntu servers will probably be something I work with in the future. At any pace, being a beginner has its draw backs, namely that small mistakes are preventing me from doing things. why I cannot install a program named Tor through Terminal. I get error messages back from Terminal saying it failed, used older files, or a mixture of both when imputing some of these commands.

I have a problem with my diabetes software as Bayer Glucofacts requires Java Runtime Envirionment 1.6.0_07 or higher to install.I suspect that I would need to download and install JRE through a terminal window? I have done some with YUM but cannot figure out how to yet with Ubuntu.
View 1 Replies View RelatedFirst you'll want to remove the old JRE or openJDK (if you have it). When JRE is installed from the repositories, do it like this: System - Administration - Synaptic Package Manager
Query: sun java Tick all installed packages and choose complete removal. When it's installed manually in /opt/java, see the instruction at the bottom of this column (under the header Removal). If you don't have JRE, then you'll probably have openJDK. That one should be completely removed as well. That can also be done with Synaptic Package Manager (query: openjdk).

I'm having trouble installing any packages with 2 or more words in their name. Single word ones install perfectly w/o any problems however. I've tried everything from quotation marks to backslash before the space but nothing seems to work & I keep getting the same Error. Here's an example (adobe air from software center):

Please suggest good font package and how to install them and where to get them. Also please let me know where to find all the treasure to make my desktop more funky and how to install them using terminal or if there is easier way.
The problem is as follows: I recently had a power outage whilst my computer was running windows. When I tried to restart the computer I received UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT on the classic blue screen of disobedience. To resolve this I've booted a live ubuntu disc (10.04 LTS), of course when I created an ext4 partition and then tried to install linux I received "error while copying files" around the 65% point of the install which has ultimately told me to create another cd, which since without a working OS I can't do.
With the above filaure in mind I looking into fsck, fsck.ntfs and testdisk both fsck couldn't access the partition and fsck.ntfs suggested I run chkdsk (which I thought fsck was the linux equivalent of).So I figure the next logical step is to try and install linux from the terminal of the cd-based instance of linux I'm running just now from a freshly downloaded iso.
Is it possible to install a bluray ripper via the terminal that can be used via the terminal?
I'm using xbmc and from what I've read it's not possible in the frontend.
My new laptop (ASUS N71Jv) refuses to install Ubuntu 9.10 - it just produces a black screen. I finally managed to get it on there somehow by installing it in safe graphics mode, so now I have to stare at 1024x768. NVIDIA has a new driver (195.36.0 available that may support my graphics card. When I try to install the executable nVidia driver from a terminal, it rightfully complains that X server is still active. Ctrl-alt-f1 or sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop produce a black screen and a frozen cursor, /sbin/init 3 does nothing.
So what I want to do is simply install the nvidia driver while not being in gnome.
I suspect that my xorg.conf file does not allow anything but 1024x768 (safe graphics mode). It's very frustrating. Any ideas how I can install the driver while being in simple failsafe command line mode or something?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI ve got updates ready to install but halfway through downloading I get a message saying it couldnt get a password or something. So I enabled unsupported updates, but it still did it.
So then I disabled them again and it said I had a broken package (ia32-libs) and to run apt-get install -f in a terminal after unchecking 3rd party updates, so I unchecked 3rd party updates, but when I type in a terminal it says permission denied and asks if I m root.
It would normally ask for a password in the terminal to root me, dont know how to do it any other way.
