You might have to add a new application catalog to see the xterm package. I am not sure which one it is in.

You may also need to install the "becomeroot" package to use some of those tools.
Once installed, you can type "sudo su -" into the console to become "root", the *NIX equivelent of a Windows admin user (but more powerful, at least as powerful as Windows' LocalSystem "user").

I just checked my nokia, wasn't able to find curses anywhere on it. Are you sure you have the right xterm program?
maybe try apt-get install libncurses
