Hi Kagwe,

The reason why ubuntu cannot find the packages is because your package 
inventory is out of date.
Connect to the internet and type in the following commands:-

sudo apt-get update

this command updates your package inventory telling your ubuntu which 
packages exist in the repos and where to get them.
This will take about 2 minutes to update (depending on your link)
Once this is done, you can now install your software by using the command:-

sudo apt-get install mysql-server apache2 php4

this will install all the packages one after the other. No need to issue 3 command in sequence.
These applications are large so you may want to go visit a friend in the mean time.

Regards,
anthony
