You have been subscribed to a public bug by Marc Deslauriers (mdeslaur): Binary package hint: initramfs-tools
using Ubuntu 10.10 and i can't install nvidia drivers, i can't install anything really, because it says pkg is locked or something. i'm entirely new to linux, but i googled this problem and it seems to be widespread with this release. i reupdated and refresh several times, and it took forever redownloading files and stuff, and it's still messed up, in fact it had this error at the end.
