The change from Windows to Debian is not always easy. You have to learn
how to use it. When I have to explain what Debian is, I often compare it
with LEGO. There are a lot of "bricks" which make your OS. And you can/
must decide which "bricks" (packages) you use. So in time you build an OS,
your OS!
You mentioned a "cannot connect to..." error. This sounds like a issue
with /etc/apt/sources.list. Now it is time to see a big difference between
Windows and Debian. Debian shows you what is going wrong in clear text,
instead of a weird error code. How to see the error? Before I can answer
that question I need more information, because my Debian OS is not your
Debian OS. I *think* you are running a Gnome Desktop, because that is the
default choice of Debian. Try this: press ALT+F2 and type (without the
quotes) "gnome-terminal" A new window pop-ups and type: cat
/etc/apt/sources.list
Copy and paste the output in a mail to this mailing list
In the same window type
sudo apt-get update
and
sudo apt-get -f install
And copy and paste the output in a mail
I hope to see your mail soon,
