When i try to install an app onto my computer, running linux ubuntu 6.10 or leafy edge, I get an error asking me to manually run dpkg --configure -a , i open a terminal and type in "dpkg --configure -a" (without the quotation marks) and the terminal says SUPERUSER PERMISSIONS NEEDED or something similar, what do i do?, i wan't to fix the problem, and i'm not even sure what i would do if it did work, i'm pretty sure a menu comes up, and i don't know what i would do if it did. I would like to fix this problem, so that i can continue testing programs or apps on my computer so any help would be appreciated. MJ

sudo dpkg --configure -a

...and enter your password

That was very simple and quick, thank you!, MJ
