I have a problem with this code in terminal:



sudo apt-get install gnome-shell


It's not working



Look at this error



E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?


What should i do to install gnome3?






Thank you for that link.



I typed this code in terminal:



sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/lock


And this:



sudo rm /var/cache/apt/archives/lock


And my previous problem has solved.



But when I type this in terminal again:



sudo apt-get install gnome-shell


It's doesn't work again!



Look at this error:

gnome-shell is already the newest version.

After installing gnome 3, have you logged out of the system?



Gnome-Shell isn't an application you just load up, it's a desktop environment.



I suggest that you log out and at the login screen click the Ubuntu symbol and choose the Gnome 3 option. You should then see Gnome Shell in all its glory.
