Re: Touchscreen only works with pi 1

VLC Won't Install

Hello, I recently reinstalled NOOBS on my Raspberry Pi B+. I decided to install VLC media player, and I used the 'sudo apt-get install vlc' command in the LX terminal. After trying to install, it said that it is missing some packages and needs to be updated. I have tried to find the application, but...
