I've been trying to install YamIpod in my new ubuntu 5.04. As a former windows user simply I'm not able to do it.

Here is what I did:

1. I downloaded the program to my desktop
2. I created a directory to install it
3. I unpacked it and then I discovered that it created its own directory. That's fine not problem
4. I wrote in the console: sudo apt-get install YamIpod.
5. Then the following message appeared:

# sudo apt-get install YamIpod
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
E: Couldn't find package YamIpod

6. I did the same with the file libfmodex.so.4.00.35

# sudo apt-get install libfmodex.so.4.00.35
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
E: Couldn't find package libfmodex.so.4.00.35

Please could anyone tell me in a simple way what's wrong? What should I do?

Thank you very much

You use apt-get to install packages from the repositories. You can also install .deb packages you downloaded with the dpkg command. The YamIpod download has neither; they just include an executable; so you just run it with "./YamIpod"

Spooon,

Thank you for your answer. I was able to install the program. Now I am dealing with another problem. I don`t know why I don`t have sound. I am able to see all the music I have but I cannot hear it.

Anyway thank you very much
