Then you haven't typed the command right!

Maybe it'll be an idea to wait till you have network access then copy/paste?

We need to see the command you're typing in, etc etc. Please just copy/paste from x-term right from the start of the process.

And now try
Code:
dpkg -i mobile-maps*.deb
within the directory, where you downloaded or copied the package.
