Package/Software Manager?
Posted: Sun Feb 17, 2013 4:29 pm
Hey all, new to the forums and fairly new to linux.
I just put Commodore Vision OS on my computer (a version of mint) and have been messing around with it for a bit. It comes with software manager, but it's not working correctly. I can open it and go all the way to an app that I want and hit install, after that a security box will open asking for a password, then it will just sit there. It doesn't install the app or anything.
I've read that that's because Software Manager doesn't work with 64-bit computers, so I'm not sure about that. So they said to use Package Manager, but I can't seem to download that. I've tried sudo apt-get install packagemanager but it says it's unable to find it.
So, how would I go about getting Package Manager? I know you can download all of the stuff through terminal but sometimes it can't find something that I want that I can see in Software Manager.
Thanks in advance for the help to a total noob
