That command will not do anything. Maybe add the file name to the end?

Umm.. What are you actually trying to achieve? The command you are giving does not contain the installable file. It seems that you're just giving the path not the .deb file.

Can you show us the actual error message? Because if this is really what you're typing, then your error would probably look more like this:

dpkg -i /home/user/MyDocs/.documents/
.documents is not a deb package (or package manifest): Is a directory

i also have a problem with this

i want to install a .deb-file

when i enter dpkg -i /media/sdhc1/file.deb
it tells me that operation requires superuser privilege, as expected

so i did sudo gainroot, which tells me "Enable RD mode if you want to break your device"
this doesnt help as the dpkg-command still doesnt work

when i do sudo -s, it also doesnt help.

how do i get superuser privileges?
all i read about in this forum is "do 'sudo gainroot' "; but that doesnt work.

you should install rootsh package.
after this
"sudo gainroot" and all commands after this will have superuser privilege. it is mean just type: "dpkg -i PackageName.deb"
