Ken, the Install and Remove Software button is what you need.  However, the 
repository set up as default has a very limited number of packages.  It may 
be that you need to define extra repositories.

I messed up my EeePC to the point where it was sensible to wipe everything and 
go back to factory defaults.  Later today I'll look at what is there in the 
raw state.  I'll report back to you whether I needed to do that, or any other 
steps to get this working.  It might be evening, though.
