I recently had to re-install my Ubuntu and am now getting error message when I try to install any updates. the message is "an error occurred dpkg was interrupted you must run manual "dpg --configure -a" so I opened a terminal session and entered the command but it then said I needed super user level access So I went into the user accounts, and it said I was an administrator but I couldn't see super user. I thought that administrator was above super user any way! Out of Ideas.
