    Menu doesn't get updated sometimes and one has to add an entry of newly installed package manually. Execute banshee command in Terminal and post error message here, if any.

    banshee
    The program 'banshee' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:
    sudo apt-get install banshee
    You will have to enable the component called 'universe'
    bash: banshee: command not found
    ubuntu@ubuntu:~$
    ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo apt-get install banshee
    Reading package lists... Done
    Building dependency tree
    Reading state information... Done
    Package banshee is not available, but is referred to by another package.
    This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
    is only available from another source
    E: Package banshee has no installation candidate

    Ubuntu 9.04 support will end on October 2010. Package Manager should install it from sources without any problem. Something is wrong with sources.list.
    Post the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list file here.

    Something is wrong in line #2 of sources.list file. Check its contents again and verify with post #5 of this thread.

    Did you copy contents of sources.list from my last post? That will not work because links do not appear correctly in posts.

    In case you couldn't find out problem, post its contents again.
