Can't Install anything via terminal in 12.04
Note i am running off an 8GB usb with 4gb persistence enabled, no its not because of this because yesterday i had it all setup and working with everything downloading properly, then i made a new user account and after i set no password for it, it kept asking me for the password so i formatted my usb again and went back to step one :)
i have Ubuntu working, i can install from software center, even though i get an error code it still installs:) I'm trying to install Ubuntu tweak and cinnamon via terminal and i was told i do it by typing this into a terminal:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tualatrix/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-tweak
i got this error from the terminal
