Describe the steps you took (exactly) to come to the conclusion that dialog doesn't work.
guess: He does not speak english but is trying to say: What is the command to tell computer to show deb dialog. dpkg-reconfigure?
So yes im a noob
I was a bit stressed when i wrote my previous message.
I basically followed the guide described in this other forum.
http://www.minhembio.com/forum/index.php...try3203499
And when i got to the part apt-get install dialog i got this message.
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package dialog 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 dialog has no installation candidate
Hopes this help you to help me.
Thanx in advance

btw. /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: dialog is not installed
Turns out you dont need the dialog to be installed.
continued with the steps later on in the guide mentioned above and got it working.
Hope someone else can benefit from this.

The correct way to install something in a ubuntu based distro is
First
asks the repository to provide the latest packages and versions.
Then in your case the desired package, dialog
Code:
sudo apt-get install dialog
