Greetings!

Merry Christmas to me as I just got my Pi up and going I am new to Linux and the Wheezy Debian OS in general. Does anyone have a link to a tutorial on how to install program likes Open Office and Firefox and WINE using this particular OS? I've been trying to find guides and they all say "Refer to you distribution Documentation". Thanks in advance!

I do not think wine will work. The Pi is an Arm CPU, i think wine only works on Intel *86 chips.

To install packages use

sudo apt-get install package-name

Firefox is called iceweasel on Debian.

OpenOffice is called LibreOffice on Debian.

Use sudo apt-cache search text to search for packages.

I get the message unable to locate package LibreOffice. Is there a list where I can view all available installation packages? Thanks a ton!

My bad.

Try apt-get install libreoffice

OpenOffice is called LibreOffice on Debian.

They are actually 2 different products: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LibreOffic ... al_release
