http://askubuntu.com – I install ubuntu 12.04 in my notebook and I use c++. I want to use c++11,so I want to upgrade my gcc to gcc4.7. I do like this: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install gcc-4.7 sudo apt-get install g++-4.7 but when I run "sudo apt-get install gcc-4.7", it just can find gcc-4.7-base not gcc-4.7, and when I run "sudo apt-get install g++-4.7", it can find nothing... Today, I want to install the "bumblebee" and do like this: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:bumblebee/stable sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install bumblebee bumblebee-nvid (HowTos)

I tried to install bumblebee on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS by following steps on ubuntuwiki site.

If I wanted to install some software like below.

Does anyone know why? Thanks.

I installed Lubuntu 11.10 and I installed build-essential with this command:

sudo apt-get install build-essential

Now I have gcc 4.6

I read on some forum that adding the next PPA I'll be able to install gcc 4.7:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test

I did that, then ran:

sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install gcc-4.7

But my machine can't find the gcc-4.7 package?

Why can't I install from PPAs? 44 weeks 6 days ago

just new in using ubuntu, just installed it last night. I having a trouble installing apps using the terminal.

Awesome it worked!For anyone else having the same issue - I uninstalled bumblebee, nvidia-bumblebee and nvidia-utils-bumblebee. Then rebooted, used packer to install bumblebee from the AUR, then used packer to install nvidia-utils-bumblebee(304.37-1) from aur.
