I installed Frodo and (after attempting to add third party add ons) I tried to go to a channel and:
It's in Ubuntu as well, I suspect that you haven't turned on the extra package repositories in the package manager.
Just go turn them on and you should be all set.
That being said if you use the PPA the packages will almost certainly be a lot more up to date.

it is strange.... the xbmc repos are included in mint (I had installed
it at one time) but not in ubuntu (the computer it is on now). This is
what confused me! Thanks for saying that it is a PPA! With that
information I was able to locate tghe repository for xbmc.

Verify that the pa mage is indeed called xbmc? I have seen packages
named something I would not have at first guessed before. Also
verify you have the needed repos enabled.

well, I decided to move my secondary computer into the living
room and just run xmbc as a program (bummer). So I go to a
terminal and:
~$ sudo apt-get install xbmc
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package xbmc
so update my apt database but that doesn't help any. Then I do a
little web searching and find that apt-get is the way I should
do it. I found the '=Installing_XBMC_for_Linux#Ubuntu_2' page
and it implies that xmbc id in the official ubuntu repository so
apt should do it.
So please, what am I doing wrong?
