knoppix@Microknoppix:~$ apt-get update
E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (13: Permission denied)
E: Unable to lock the list directory
knoppix@Microknoppix:~$ apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13: Permission denied)
E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?
knoppix@Microknoppix:~$
I opened LXTerminal (black icon down near the "Start button") and then:
sudo apt-get update
after much shilly-shalley'ing (connecting to sources on the web) I was then able to:
sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
which was followed by more automatic goodies, and flash was now available.
FYI, I had a lot of trouble trying to install Chrome (everybody should try it!), which I had the .deb for, and after much non-useful work using both synaptic and apt-get, it was easy:
sudo dpkg -i /path/to/MYPKG.deb
Hope this helps!
