There's a couple of other changes you might need to make, so I've put an updated source.list for you at http://pastebin.com/f3944dadb. To replace your current one with the updated one, just do the following in a terminal: cd sudo cp /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.bak wget http://pastebin.com/pastebin.php?dl=f3944dadb sudo mv pastebin.php\?dl\=f3944dadb /etc/apt/sources.list sudo aptitude update sudo aptitude dist-upgrade Again, if you have any errors put them on PasteBin. - -- Many thanks Harry Rickards (a.k.a l33tmyst) - -- () ascii ribbon campaign - against html e-mail /\ www.asciiribbon.org - against proprietary attachments -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkn1030ACgkQ1kZz3mRu0GqxUACgs+SAs9mHvHSu87lX93+wky+I WiEAoOhJ2XSiQPxjcoDh+Y8HzVNHEty8 =Pczj -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
