If you have already installed dsl-dpkg and synaptic, you don't need to try to install synpatic again - just run it.

Sorry, must've missed that.

What did you try to run it, and were there any errors?

I've also tried to find the program it self (i might be looking in the wrong places) but it don't seem to be in bin or anywhere else I've looked for that matter.

If it helps, I'm running DSL 3.3 HDD Install
