Hi evry1

i typed in “sudo apt-get install vlc vlc-plugin-* mozilla-plugin-vlc”

and this is what I got:

chris@genius3:~$ sudo apt-get install vlc vlc-plugin-* mozilla-plugin-vlc
Reading package lists… Done
Building dependency tree… Done
E: Couldn’t find package vlc
chris@genius3:~$

now I’ve Tried: “sudo apt-get update”
which then gave me:
Reading package lists… Done
Followed by: “sudo apt-get install vlc vlc-plugin-esd”
following a similar result:
Reading package lists… Done
Building dependency tree… Done
E: Couldn’t find package vlc

Can any one assist or advise me on what to do next
