I have just installed ubuntu and have received the following error message when I attempted to install a totem plug in to watch a dvd and also when i tried to add the program desktop effects;

----------

E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
E: _cache->open() failed, please report.

----------

Suggestions?

hi,
Open a terminal (Applications>Accessories>Terminal) and do as it says.

sudo dpkg --configure -a
