Linix / Terminal Command help

must be doing something wrong:

kencs@Kencs-System:~$ sudo apt-get opera
E: Invalid operation opera

Any step by step advice as I dont understand the advice from the ubuntu forums etc...

thanks
 
Thanks all for replying. I have joined the Ubuntu forums to see if I can read up and learn something :) Its just the commands they seem to put me off a little but im slowly learning :)
 
Managed to get Conky installed on my netbook, when I run it in Netbook edition it is showing along the bottom, when I run in Desktop edition I cant see it.

Following a website instruction, it says to put the following into a config file:

background yes
use_xft yes
xftfont DejaVu Sans Mono:size=8
xftalpha 0.8
out_to_console no
update_interval 5.0
total_run_times 0
draw_shades no

# Create own window instead of using desktop (required in nautilus)
own_window yes

# If own_window is yes, you may use type normal, desktop or override
own_window_type override

# Use pseudo transparency with own_window?
own_window_transparent yes

double_buffer yes
default_color 586F86
color1 white
alignment bottom_left
gap_x 2
gap_y 2
#no_buffers yes
use_spacer yes

Which part of the code tells it to become a line and not a box? I want it to be a box but everything I have tried to change doesnt work. I have tried googling it and cannot find the answer Im looking for.
