If that's on Ubuntu 12.04 then you probably need to enable the universe
repository first

would I still need to do that after an 'apt-get update'?

And it's definitely Ubuntu 12.04 32bit Desktop - not say 14.04?

I don't know what that is - but is this on ARM hardware by any chance?

Only 32 bit x86 processors are supported

Can you help with this problem?
