If U like to use download manager. U can try this JDownloader must have a feature that is not inferior to IDM and of course free :D

1. U must install Firefox
Code:
sudo apt-get install firefox

2. Install add-ons Flashgot for Mozilla Firefox
3. Install PPA JDownloader
Code:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:jd-team/jdownloader

4. Install Icedtea Web Plugin.
Code:
sudo apt-get install icedtea-6-plugin

5. Then Install JDownloader
Code:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install jdownloader


- Run the JDownloader program, the program will automatically update when first run
- When the update is complete, it will display a window Installation JDownloader. We can set the language and download folder
- When finished, it will come out again to integrate JDownloader window into firefox. click OK

we can get full speed when downloading a file. Default max connection in JDownloader is 2, which means the file will be split into 2 parts when downloaded. We can turn it into 8 (same as IDM).

Again a very useful sticky! Thanx!

Is there an error on your first command? (to install firefox).
I believe it should be
Code:
sudo apt-get install firefox


or better yet, to do it via the repositories
Code:
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:mozillateam/firefox-next
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
