  1. Your terminal output is normal. Don't use deepin 23, it's for testing purposes only so the repositories may break left and right.
  2. The best way to install virtualbox is to use deb package from virtuablox website. App store version is broken since it doesnt install kernel modules.
  3. Most Debian/Ubuntu commands should work, with an exception that PPA's in 99% percent of cases don't have a deepin release so you're going to be met with an error.

Thank you so much I wasted whole day to find out why commands are not working.. Could you tell me which linux OS is best ubuntu series debian or if deepin OS version which could be more stable and Best one.. Deepin has a lot.. and so as debian... or redhat series.. maybe.. please suggest me the best one for most of the apps to work.. it updates automatic.. I really dont like cli because its too many commands and hard to find packages.. or may be because iam new so plz recommend a GUI packages or maybe like tutorial which installs automatically all packages. Its really hard to remember commands. I liked installation process in deepin.

I installed Kali its good but no good Gui.. deepin has good gui but lot of problems installing packages since its beta.

Please suggest me procedure to change operating system.. or maybe downgrade or how do i do it.

When you're downloading deepin there are two versions, one stable and the other beta. You may install deepin 20.9 which has the most complete, modern and user friendly interface. However, you might find difficulties installing software which is an issue still unresolved. If you want the best out of the box experience, you might look for ubuntu. There's also ChromeOS flex you may take into consideration.

So tldr my recommendations are - 1. Deepin 20.9 stable 2.Ubuntu 3. ChromeOS
