Just installed, I dont have synaptic or add/remove

[PLANETARY]

Just did a fresh install and I dont have a package manager or program installer, synaptic or add/remove. I tried sudo apt-get synaptic but that didnt work. I would like to have the synaptic and add/remove that ubuntu uses, can I get some help
I need this mostly for ndiswrapper for my old laptops wireless card. I am using a wired connection now.

on the install it said it failed to get apt or something. I have installed it a couple of times and I still get that message. I suspect that may be the problem

so far I like the desktop environment.

The install is from this website.

Thanks.

so is this Ubuntu you are using ? When you say you tried apt-get synaptic and it failed, how exactly did it fail ?

Umm, Ubuntu without synaptic, what have you done?

Dude are you still having this problem or did you figure out what caused it?

If you still need help please post which OS you're using.
