First question is What version of Ubuntu are you using?
This makes it much easier for us to help you.

According to packages.ubuntu.com that package is in the Restricted repository.
It should be on by default.
You can check by going to:
System -> Administration -> Software Properties
Check if the first items in the list have the words "official
supported" and "restricted copyright"
If they only have "official supported" then push add and select
"Ubuntu [your version]" (where [your version] is actually the version
number for your release). Make sure the box is ticked for restricted
copyright. Open Synaptic Package Manager and push reload. Close it and
try enabling the driver again.
If that still fails you may want to enable Universe and Multiverse.

Welcome, always good to meet new users.
You mind find typing in the more traditional manner get's you more
answers to queries. It is possible some people ignored your message
because of the way it was formated. Unfortunately it's often the most
experienced who are most picky about format.
(that can include things like typing words in full (nt typing wrds in fll))
