Hi all,
I have a CD from the latest Linux Format mag, but can't install any of
the apps (I'm using Ub 11.04). The instructions say, enter dpkg -i
filename.deb into the CLI, but I'll be jiggered if I can establish the
file name..! I've looked into the various folders on the disc and tried
various file names, nothing works. I searched the CD for *.deb, but
nothing was found. What am I missing? Any advice gratefully received.
Thanks, group. Jack.


Hi Jack,

Is there any particular app you're trying to install?

I'm a Linux Format subscriber and although I don't usually look at the CDs I'd be happy to have a look and advise if I can.

Ta,

Rob
