[Question #76713]: Problems using terminal

 

New question #76713 on firefox-3.0 in ubuntu:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox-3.0/+question/76713

When entering commands in the Terminal window to install Java, I consistently get the error "E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?".

I think this resulted from aborting a previous install before it completed.

Any suggestions?
Thanks
