Is the syntax the same for wget ? Like:
sudo wget ppa:dansmith/chirp-snapshots

I used Madriva up until 2012 and back when it was Mandrake.
apt-get was its command line network downloader. Did Ubunto
switch to apt-get? I'm sure when I was trying Ubuntu out back when it was 10x
that they used wget.

Michael,

Here's what I do in Linux Mint (based on and compatible with Ubuntu)

In the terminal execute the following

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:dansmith/chirp-snapshots
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install chirp-daily

Then still in terminal add your user to the "dialout" group (substitute your Ubuntu username for {username})

sudo usermod -a -G dialout {username}

Then logout and login for the group membership change to take effect.
