I got some old parts from my friends just to try out mining for fun.

I got an old PC and plugged in a HD4850. I then installed Ubuntu 12.10. (I don't really use Ubuntu so i'm not really sure what i'm doing, so please forgive me. )

I looked at this guide here: http://blog.mypapit.net/2011/05/howto-mining-bitcoin-in-ubuntu-using-opencl-py.html

So I followed step one and opened terminal and put in:
Quote
sudo apt-get install python-pyopencl subversion

but I get the following error

The following packages have unmet dependencies.
 python-pyopencl : Depends: opencl-icd but it is not installable
                   Depends: python-pyopencl-headers (= 2012.1-1ubuntu1) but it is not going to be installed
                   Recommends: python-pyopencl-doc but it is not going to be installed
                   Recommends: python-opengl but it is not going to be installed

Am I missing something? Please help :/
