MP3 PLAYER Issue!

[ubunterooster]

[facepalms at your player's manufacturer for no having a viewable instruction book online, not at you]

you could

sudo apt-get nautilus

then

gksu nautilus

Also see your player for a "reset to defaults" or similar option

[jokei]

Right, sudo apt-get Nautilus yields
"E: Invalid Operation Nautilus"

???

I got the instruction manual and surprisingly there's no help for anything but Windows...
their online help is ludicrously bad and I know they're just going to tell me that Linux isn't supported.

I'm using a Windows XP emulator on here to play some games, is that of use?

[ubunterooster]

"Nautilus" should be "nautilus". No capitals.

Edit: I was looking for instructions for telling device to reset itself to factory settings. If the nautilus file browser works, there will be no need to reformat/reset to factory defaults

[jokei]

Yeah, sorry, I should've been more clear - I just copied and pasted the text from your post, still not working though.

[ubunterooster]

ok. Go to System>Administration>Synaptic Package Manager.

Install nautilus from there

??? Got this message trying to install it...

Hmmm. It is trying to get the packages off a cd drive, leading me to think that you have disabled repositories

[jokei]

Not knowingly...

I just went back into the Add/remove Applications and got this

There has been an error installing the following application - Nautilus...

I tried to download that and got this

W: Failed to fetch http://archive.getdeb.net/ubuntu/poo...tdeb1_i386.deb
500 Internal Server Error

[ubunterooster]

try clicking the said link above
edit: never mind, link is errant.

[jokei]

404 Not found.

I've not really tinkered with Xubuntu much, I just use it for web/browsing and a bit of nerdery...

Not messed with any of the settings programmes... I'm feeling lost, thanks for trying.
