[...] Are you sure that it says "command not found"? That is weird. What does "ls -l /usr/bin/dpkg" give as output? Further, while this is not the cause of your immediate problem, you need to run dpkg as root, so that should be "sudo dpkg --configure -a" (when prompted for a password, enter your normal one).
