I installed ubuntu last night. And after reading 100s of posts, I still couldn't make my sudo apt-get work at all. I remember, I have to modify the software server somehow. But I can't remember how or where to do it.

Nothing is being installed.

Need help.

After a fresh install of Ubuntu, launch Terminal by using Ctrl+Alt+T and run:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade

Once, this process has been completed, you can install packages using

sudo apt-get install <package_name>
