Recently downloaded and installed 24.04. Having trouble activating the
APP Application. I get a quick black square flash and then nothing.
Therefore, I cannot look up software and or download it.
I am using an old Gateway desktop with i3 processor.

Looking for a way to successfully look up and download software apps.

I discovered a cool new app. ServiceMaster: ServiceMaster is a powerful terminal-based tool for managing systemd units on Linux systems. It provides an intuitive interface for viewing and controlling system and user units, making it easier to manage your units without leaving the command line.
Features:

• View all systemd units or filter by type (services, devices, sockets, etc.)
• Start, stop, restart, enable, disable, mask, and unmask units
• View detailed status information for each unit
• Switch between system and user units
• User-friendly ncurses interface with color-coded information
• Keyboard shortcuts for quick navigation and control
• DBus event loop: Reacts immediately to external changes to units
