The command you run should be prefixed by "sudo". The error you are getting is a cryptic way of saying your user does not have permission to perform the operation and sudo will run with an elevated permission. Thus: sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install squeezecenter Ben _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/unix
