Linux HOW-TO: Automated efficient XBMC install - Ubuntu 12.10/13.04 mini based

Installing the fglrx-legacy package doesn't work because it doesn't support Xserver 1.13 which is what 12.10 uses.
This is taken from https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sourc...ug/1058040. There is a workaround which worked for me.
Before executing the script this should be done. So after the first boot SSH into the machine and do
Code:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:makson96/fglrx && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -y upgrade && sudo apt-get -y install fglrx-legacy
If you execute the script now the script will detect the installed driver and will skip driver installation and you should have a working minimal installation of XBMC.

Trying this just gives me a error:

Code:
sudo: add-apt-repository: command not found

Tried the fix here Ubuntu Forum

Still the same error.
