Common problems:

* If you don't have any experience with Linux download the Lubuntu “appliance” and use it
directly with VMware:

Notices:

• No installation required
• root password is : password

* If you can't find "code::blocks" in "Lubuntu Software Center", the Center probably has a
problem. To fix the Center use the following command:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure lubuntu-software-center

* If you successfully installed “code::blocks” but you can’t run your “hello world” program
and you are sure it’s error free. Install “g++” with the following command and try again
(Internet connection required):
sudo apt-get install g++
