hey when i try to open Synaptic Package Manager, it doesnt open?

 

[lewekleonek]

Gotta be root to opy synaptic package manager... you must be using KDE as windows manager. If that's the case install kynaptic and try that.

 

[Vigilante]

Heard a few good things about Ubuntu. Google has their eye on it, so that's gotta be something.

 

[akaivan]

were can i get kynaptic

 

[lewekleonek]

Oh darn, no kynaptic anymore; seems like synaptic is all that's left; logout and login to the system with GNOME window manager; you should be prompted for the main user password (equivalent to root).

 

[akaivan]

how do i get to the gnome manager? lol

unless you're a glutton for punishment and like memorizing commands.... go with windows.
