Problem with MySQL

[Jad madi]

please paste the result of

sudo aptitude why-not mysql-server && sudo aptitude why mysql-server

however I guess the problem is that you downloaded mysql-server-5.0
without configuring it and/or something is not letting you configuring
it
try this
sudo dpkg-reconfigure mysql-server-5.0
