For those who want to copy and paste the commands, they are (w/o quotations):

"sudo add-apt-repository ppa:and471/kazam-daily-builds"

"sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install kazam"

That last line just combines the last two commands together to be performed in sequence.

THUMBS UP to send to top !

Thanks a lot man :)

kazam is a piece of crap that doesnt even work correctly

[rayyanputra]

It's working! Yeah! I should watch this video at the first place!

By the way, is Kazam officially dead?

I'm on 11.10, and the terminal tells me that there are some 404 errors. Is that just temporary or am i doing something wrong (I could post the whole error message then)?

@sdperez79 All the commands in the terminal you'r gonna have to learn. It's gonna take time to learn them all. The main command you will find yourself using over and over is SUDO. SUDO is what you would put before any command to perform that command as a ROOT user.

Ubuntu by default does not activate the root account. If you noticed during the install, it does not ask for a ROOT user password. I think Ubuntu is the only distro that does it.

Thank you for the suggestion. I think it would a whole lot easier for everyone if you would add the command lines in the description so they could easily copy and paste the commands in to the terminal.

Just a suggestion.

Keep up the work
