we hope , you have internet connection.

connect the ubuntu with internet.

Go to ->  System ->  Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager


It will ask "root user" password to open that.  enter ur root user password.


you can see the "Reload" arrow mark button at the top left side of that
package manager window.


It will fetch , the package indices from ubuntu-sites  .    Now you can see
28,924 no of packages at the bottom
of synaptic package.



Now , type your package name in search bar. say "vlc"

now the window will list outed the vlc-packages.

Right click on the vlc package , and select "Mark for installation ".

It will asks , to mark its decencies also. Mark that too.


Now click , "Apply" button at the left top most side of the package manager

installed automatically.



One more , to run vlc and mplayer in ubuntu , you need to install the
following.

At last , install few players as "mplayer", "amarok".

All the best ! Enjoy with ubuntu.
