I used the code on root but it does nothing after i press enter.
What could be the problem?

You need to execute the commands separately. Execute 'apt-get update' first, then search the cache for existing plugins. Also, you need to have the extras-devel repository enabled, otherwise you will not find any plugins. I would like to promote the application and plugins to extras-testing, but I am unable to do this, as the maemo.org login is currently broken.

P.S. The link you posted earlier is for an older version (0.7.0). The latest version (for Maemo5) is 0.8.1, and is available from the extras-devel repository, so there is no need to download packages from Ubuntu One.

If you install one of the plugins, version 0.8.1 will automatically be installed, as they cannot generally be installed alongside the older version (in most cases, they would overwrite files installed by the older package, which had the plugins already included).
