I dont understand the question. I'm a real n00bie here.
I just got virgin ubuntu up and working last night after 38
hours of downloading.

A command line would be ok with me. But I don't
know what to download.

thanks

you can use the following terminal command

apt-get install subversion

to install subversion on your ubuntu system

in general, ubuntu is a debian derivative - so you can use apt-get from the commandline or *.deb packages if you prefer downloading and installing separately.

another option is to use "Synaptic package manager" which is a GUI for apt-get, you'll find it in System->Administration

HTH
good luck,

Open a command line prompt and type:
sudo apt-get install subversion

Open a command line prompt and type:
sudo apt-get install subversion

Code
pecan@Herman:~$ sudo apt-get install subversion
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Package subversion is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package subversion has no installation candidate
pecan@Herman:~$

Ok, what do I do now.

Thanks for being patient with me, I'll eventually get it...

Maybe that package is in universe and it'sn't enabled?

/etc/apt/sources.list almost at the end, be sure universe isn't commented. If it is, just remove the #, save the file (as root).

Run:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install subversion

[edit]
I just checked and it's both in main and universe. Maybe waiting, as suggested by tiwag, solves the problem :P

tiwag: manually :P

I thought apt-cache show subversion would show that but it didn't.

Pecan: just wait, but I still recommend the sudo apt-get update. If that also fails, keep waiting.

It looks like my "universe" is commented out. Could you give me a quick
lesson on how to copy this to a ".bak" file then edit it.

Oh Nooooo, I don't have to use vi do I? I hated that thing for years; haven't
used it for 10 years, and still hate.

thanks
pecan

EDIT:
I did the "sudo apt-get update".

Heh, I wonder if ubuntu comes with nano or pico. For such a simple task vi would be enough :)

To copy it:

cp sources.list sources.list.bak

To edit it:

vi sources.list :twisted:

(of course, without the smiley)

Quick vi:

You move with the arrows.
If you want to edit, press i or Insert (should appear INSERT in the last line).
To quit "edition" mode, press ESC.
-- Next commands must be entered out of the "edition" mode, and press ENTER after each one --
To save type :w
To save and quit type :wq
To quit if you haven't made any changes type :q
To quit if you don't want to save the changes type :q!
-- More --
To go to line # type :# (replace # by the line number you want to go).
To find string str type /str (replace str by the string you want to search). Direction = Down.
To find string str type ?str (replace str by the string you want to search). Direction = Up.
To repeat last search type //. Direction = Down.
To repeat last search type ??. Direction = Up.
To repeat last search press n (this one doesn't need ENTER). Direction = Same.
To repeat last search press N (shift + n) (this one doesn't need ENTER). Direction = Contrary.
To undo press u (this one doesn't need ENTER).

[edit]
Dunno if it got installed or already came with Kubuntu Dapper, but I have pico and nano. You can try those first which are a lot more friendly :)
