Make sure you don't have any "oneiric" sources that should be "precise" 
sources. Then remove the rest of the "oneiric" sources and run an 
apt-get update again to make sure you have the latest package indices, 
and try running "apt-get -f install" again.

If that says that everything is OK, run apt-get upgrade to make sure 
everything is upgraded.
