Go to System > Administration > Software Sources and un-tick "Cdrom with
Ubuntu Hardy 8.04". And I would recommend enabling all 5 in the "Ubuntu
Software" tab ( not the Cdrom though ). Then when you press close, it will
ask to reload. Just press reload ( you will need the internet ) and wait for
the window to close. Then try the command that gave errors again and it
should work.
