Installing WINE

Try going up to the top taskbar and click on

System - Administration - Synaptic Package Manager

it asks for you normal user password, not your SuperUser/Root one. Use either search tool to search for "nokia mobile" and stuff like that. Note that all the programs you already have are marked with a green blob, to install something just right-click and choose "install". While you're there it's usually worth clicking on "Mark all Updates" button. Then click on the "Apply". Synaptic is great for finding useful programs because the "Search" button searches in descriptions as well as titles so i can be a bit vague and it still finds stuff for me ;)

Good luck and regards
Tom :)

A downloaded program could be a beta or development version or could be written for a different distro, one other than Ubuntu. I have almost no doubt that you have the right one this time but it's always worth searching in Synaptic before searching the internet.
