Greetings, all.

I am new here and reasonably new to all of this VPS business, having been dragged kicking and screaming out of my darkened basement full of hastily cobbled together servers running various older OSs, and into the internets.

I have been installing some bits and pieces that I need on the Linode that a friend has rented and asked me to help set up.

Please bear with me, I've not used a VPS before, nor Ubuntu.

Whilst I have managed to get about 60% of what I need done, I am stuck on the installation of a number of packages for Ubuntu 10.04 and the search engines haven't been kind enough to reveal to me exactly what I am seeking.

I've also searched and gone through the forums here but can't seem to solve the below issues.

Any ideas on how to solve the below?

I am trying to install the below using apt-get and receive the following error:

Quote:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Couldn't find package [package name]


    - php-xml
    - php-mbstring
    - php5-zip
    - libcurl13
    - libcurl13-dev
    - php-pdo
    - Alternative PHP Cache (APC)
    - Minify
    - PHPExcel
    - PHP QR Code Encoder
    - PHP Unit 3.4.2
    - Sozfo Form Extension
    - TeraWURFL
    - WURFL
    - DataTables
    - Markerclusterer
    - Qtip
    - jQuery tablePagination plugin
    - ajaxupload.js
    - colorpicker.js
    - jQuery watermark plugin
    - DD_Roundies
    - jQuery chainedselect plugin
    - jQuery maxlength plugin

I've tried all kinds of combinations of the module and plugin names as suggested by the search engines, but no luck.

With GeoIP, I can kind of install it via apt-get however the full pecl install has numerous errors. Please see below:

Any modicum of help or directions would be much appreciated, though for now, I must sleep.

Cheers,

Judas

If you haven't done an apt-get update yet, you might want to do that first. I find http://packages.ubuntu.com/ useful when I need to look up Ubuntu packages.
