'E:Malformed line 59 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (URI parse)
Well I get a update notification and then this error appeared. So I go to the file and this is my 59 line (I think)
deb index of / lucid partner
But heres my sorce.list file. I have read some threads, but I don't find what they say is the error.
Ubuntu 12.04 in a Alienware M17 not running in dual boot.
Thanks

Re: 'E:Malformed line 59 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (URI parse)
It would make it easier if you would include line numbers in the future.
Code:
cat -n /etc/apt/sources.list
deb index of / lucid partner
deb-src index of / lucid partner
Both of these need to be removed.

My bad, I feel kind of noob, I changed permissions to rw and then tried to edit it, but I got a error saying that gedit can't make a backup so I click save anyway, but its not getting saved?? what should I do?
Thanks

What did you do to fix your problem so others can gain knowledge.
Cheers - :)
Re: 'E:Malformed line 59 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list (URI parse)
oo yea, my bad.
Code:
$ sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
then I deleted the last two sentences:
deb index of / lucid partner
deb-src index of / lucid partner
save it and reboot, just in case. Now working normally again. :D
