How do I find packages to install via apt-get
We use this command to install packages on our system...
Common Syntax:
sudo apt-get install <packageName>
For example...
sudo apt-get install g++
Now in this case it was easy as we new the 1-word name "g++".
But some times this <packageName> differes from the actual name of the program or the actual name consists of 2 or more words like "NVIDIA X Server Settings"...
But the command is:
sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings
My question is:
How do people come to know that nvidia-settings is the required <packageName> for NVIDIA X Server Settings?
Is there any standard way to know the <packageName> for the desired program?
EDIT:
For example if I want to install Google chrome then how can I know that what should be replaced by <packagename>?:
sudo apt-get install <packageName>
