What “lots of errors” do you get when you try to install software?
How do you try to install the software, and which software do you try to install?
hello snarky,
firstly thanks for your interest.
for example: i’m trying sdk manager .deb file;
irfan@irfan:~/Downloads$ sudo apt install ./sdkmanager_1.1.0-6343_amd64.deb

Seems you’re trying to install sdkmanager on Nano.
Sdkmanager is a host application to be run on a Linux Ubuntu PC. Note that the package name contains the target architecture amd64, while a suitable package for jetson would be aarch64 (ARM64).
If you’ve flashed a SD card, it probably has most of what you need.
Ubuntu on Nano uses APT package system, so you would be able to install software using it.
In short:
# Update list of available packages
sudo apt-get update
# Upgrade current system with new available packages
sudo apt-get upgrade
# Search for a package
sudo apt search <part_of_plugin_name or ...>
# Install new package
sudo apt-get install <new_package>
