I first tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game but no success there (thought it was wierd that the app manager sais it's only a 4kb download). I read some posts here and tried typing "dpkg --force-all -r libsdl-ttf2.0-0" in the terminal but the answer i get is "dpkg: operation requires read/write access to dpkg status are a".

Could anyone help me in and explain in a way a newcomer could understand?

Big thanks in advance

I'm not expert, but this may be because you were not using the dpkg command as root. If you have rootsh installed, first type "sudo gainroot" and enter. Then you can use the dpkg command to make the changes you want.
