It's likely that the whole thing is wrong. <br> <br> The other option is to remove that file and redo the procedure to add medibuntu - either run nautilus as root - gksudo nautilus /etc/apt/sources.list.d<br> <br> and remove the file from there or do it from the command line - sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list<br> <br> <br> Then re acquire the medibuntu repos using the command here - <a class="ecxmoz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu" target="_blank">https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu</a></div><div><br></div><div>Michael writes,</div><div>Thanks, sudo rm /etc......has restored my 10.04 to normal after a restart, I'll resist a reload of medibuntu for now as I can do region "0" copies of all DVD's.</div><div>It is interesting to see how one file error can cause so many problems to a release, please accept my thanks, all who helped, rest assured that Medibuntu is</div><div>a well tried and tested DVD CSS decoding program, just needs to be typed in correctly. <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br>-- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/</div> </div></body> </html>
