To install programs you have to do it the linux way. The link below has a lot of useful info. The part about “Opening repositories” explains how to install programs. You will have to use the terminal to make some changes to some files but then after you run the update the first thing you should install is Synaptic. Synaptic is what you should use to install programs. Synaptic does not use the terminal.
The second link below explains how synaptic works. It is written for ubuntu but works the same way with the eeepc.
Good luck

You say you made sure it’s for linux, but itunes doesn’t have a linux version.
You need to install “wine” first.
