I have started using SageMaker Studio Lab.
When I run "apt install xvfb" in SageMaker Studio Lab Notebook, I get the following error.
!apt install xvfb
E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend - open (13: Permission denied)
E: Unable to acquire the dpkg frontend lock (/var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend), are you root?
Then I tried with sudo, but the sudo command was not installed.
!sudo apt install xvfb
/usr/bin/sh: 1: sudo: not found
Can you please tell me how to solve this problem?
To date Studio Lab doesn't support package installs that require root access. It does support packages installable via pip and conda. You can do that either in your notebook with the %, rather than the !, or you can do that via opening a terminal.
If you'd like to open an issue you're welcome to do that on our repository right here:
Thanks for trying out Studio Lab!
