Just Installed Ultimate 1.9 ..Tried a Nice distro after many weeks...But i faced problems installing apache mysql n php...It reports Broken packages..An update after changing the repos(Adding repoubuntu) gives the following error
Code: Select all
W: Duplicate sources.list entry http://repoubuntusoftware.info harty/all Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/repoubuntusoftware.info_dists_harty_all_binary-i386_Packages)
E: Problem parsing dependency Depends
E: Error occurred while processing btnx (NewVersion1)
E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/repoubuntusoftware.info_dists_test_all_binary-i386_Packages
E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.


Also problems in installing Nvidia restricted driver...Tried installing from System-->administration-->Hardware drivers...Failed to fetch the files..Later downloaded it manually and tried to install it..But the error appears like
:
Code: Select all
Unable to build the NVIDIA kernel module

The easiest way to fix it, is to remove the repo you added.
any time you get a duplicate error, it's best to run the command
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get update

if you need to run it again it will tell you.
