so i followed this instructions...
To create SD cards slots,

mkdir ~/.gvm/cards #only have do it once
echo -e "/media/mmc1\nRW" > ~/.gvm/cards/0 #SD-1
echo -e "/media/mmc1\nRW" > ~/.gvm/cards/1 #SD-2 and etc
echo -e "/media/mmc1\nRW" > ~/.gvm/cards/2
echo -e "/media/mmc1\nRW" > ~/.gvm/cards/3
echo -e "/media/mmc1\nRW" > ~/.gvm/cards/4
echo -e "/media/mmc1\nRW" > ~/.gvm/cards/5
echo -e "/media/mmc1\nRW" > ~/.gvm/cards/6
echo -e "/media/mmc1\nRW" > ~/.gvm/cards/7

first i installed gvm...then i have to enter this "mkdir ~/.gvm/cards" in x-terminal?...but how the heck do i enter this "~" swirly symbol..x-term just not accepting this symbol !!

also i would really like to install ptunes...when i tried to install it via .prc using gvm--> install ptunes just decompresses and then shuts off the window and nothing happens??
