I try to install new software with package manager but ipkg give me some error or didn't resolve dependences automatically.so I'm not able to install extra software

one error is:

Package manager was terminated due to signal code SIGKILL

there is a bug whereby if you install more than one package, that package manager crashes. package + dependencies = more than one package.
i reported this as a bug a long time ago in the OE bugtracker...

Ah, I missed the GUI bit.

The 'easy' way to get around this is to use ipkg from the command line.

Yep, these issues (with the gpe and opie versions) have been ongoing for a long time. The problem is that no-one has yet decided to fix/write a new GUI package manager. If there's anyone out there who fancies the task, then I'm sure you'll get a lot of kudos.
