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. -- Abhinav Gupta
