    how can i check whether a particular package is installed or not using terminal...
    Code:
    dpkg -l | grep <package_name>
    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

    excellent !!!

    also you can try:

    Code:
    apt-cache search [package]
    you can obtain more information searching in the web...
    or in the Debian Page, there are manuals about apt (APT HowTO)

    also, you can check the man pages for quick reference:

    Code:
    man apt
    man apt-cache
    man apt-get
    man aptitude
    See you.
