Just keep trying, Anon. Ask us anything :D

But Ubuntu doesn't come with amazon spyware anymore?

How old is this pasta?

>>56933682
Linux Mint comes without the spyware.
Also:
Cntrl + k
Then type:
sudo apt install gcc

P.S I thought gcc came by default in cuntbuntu?

>>56933682

Lol what a dummie. Just install a different spin (Kubuntu, Lubuntu) That doesn't have Amazon and RTFM.

>>56933717
It does.

Installing Linux is fucking stupidly hard.

The Amazon thing is there still. But the botnet part is disabled by default in the settings.

Feel free to prove me wrong if you have such objection to my statement.

>>56933682
I'm sure you installed Gentoo or Arch shit. Try Mint and you have a software center and apt-get and a program for additional drivers. It's very easy.

>>56933855
try using aptitude, then you are also able to search packages, first install aptitude:
sudo apt-get install aptitude

then use aptitude search "your program" and will give you the right names. then you can install it with apt-get

>>56933682
If you're a begginer, you should use Linux Mint with Cinnamon. That's what begginers uses.

This healthy behavior is getting rarer by the day.

OP, you can try Linux Mint (or LM Debian Edition) to get started. I used it when I was learning. You could even try Manjaro, which is also easy to use.
Those are perfect as main OSes for not so experienced people. I myself am transitioning from Manjaro to Arch now.

If you couldn't do basic stuff you probably fucked up somewhere, because Linux isn't as tough as you'd think (especially those newbie-friendly distros).
Just don't go for like, Gentoo on your first try.

Start up by the basics, such as just using the OS, don't mess up software versions.

Ubuntu is know for being a broken distro for people who want to customize it, or even changing basic stuff.

Get other spin, like Xubuntu, or Kubuntu if you want another DE.

Learn 0101 stuff like basic commands, package management.

You can get PPA's (third party repositories), for installing newer versions of software on Ubuntu based distros.

Use it, learn it, then you can try it's base distro (Debian), if you want to "lower the level", and customize everything.

>Synaptic is no longer installed by default in Ubuntu 11.10, however it is still useful in some situations.

What a piece of trash... Fuck *buntu!
