When I open Ubuntu Tweak and click on applications, I get this message: "This feature isn't currently available in your distribution". I've tried reinstalling ubuntu tweak, and I've updated and upgraded but it's stlll not working. I hope you can help. Thank you

As a side note DO NOT USE THE CLEANUP kernals, packages or cache, AT THIS POINT IT WILL WIPE OUT ALL YOUR APPS !! all other functions are OK ! If you wish to clean your system do this ! and follow Admin-Amirs tut viewtopic.php?f=66&t=4420&p=49141&hilit=clean+old+kernels#p49141

Cleanup processes still not safe to use!? Oh well, maybe by Ultimate Edition 2.8 Until then. Peace.

I just updated to the 6.34 kernel, as well as installed the newer tweak **tips hat to 2hot6ft2**
Tweak is working much better now, but after picking the applications that I want to install (namely swiftfox per admin-amir's suggestion in tips & fixes, xorg updates, and flash PPA updates), I get the following error (which I also get if I just run from the update manager):

Could not download all repository indexes

The repository may no longer be available or could not be contacted because of network problems. If available an older version of the failed index will be used. Otherwise the repository will be ignored. Check your network connection and ensure the repository address in the preferences is correct.

An error occurred

The following details are provided:
E: Could not get lock /var/lib/apt/lists/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
E: Unable to lock the list directory


It should be noted that I am an ubuntu/linux user as of 2 days ago, so this may be a completely n00b question. Be gentle, I'm working on it.

In the event that it is important:
Ubuntu 10.04 (lucid)
GNOME: 2.30.0
Kernel: 2.6.34-020634-generic

Amir,
I followed the instructions, and when running apt-get update in Terminal, I got the following:

~$ sudo apt-get update

It will hang at 96% until I ctrl+C out.

Hello kai .

the Ubuntu Repo are Updating for 3 Days now.
I had 500 packages Updated on the last 3 Days , So just hold on there and try again one more time.
The issue is not the U.E problem - This is servers Updating time.
