Hello Charlie,
I am running the 10.04LTS of Ubuntu, which is a long-term-support version (the LTS), and the 11.04 is not an LTS version. Its support runs out sometine in 2012, as I recall, where my version runs out in 2013.
That said, you may have your answer here: "... or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming."
When you run the leading-edge releases of a Linux distro, you may find yourself having to recompile from source on occasion when you stray from the well-traveled path. I am not, by any means, an Ubuntu expert (which they is a former drip under high pressure  ). I have learned a lot, but I wish I knew more about the inner workings so I can fine-tune scripts that don't work as well with my hardware as they might. I do not, for instance, get the video performance out-of-the-box that I get with a commercial OS like Windows, for which hardware vendors readily provide appropriate drivers. |
