[lozanoa11]

im trying to install medibuntu and i keep getting an error:
Failed to fetch http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/repo/dists/jaunty/free/i18n/Translation-en_US.bz2 Could not resolve 'medibuntu.sos-sts.com'
im not sure what im doing wrong here and im kinda new at this so any help would be apreciated.
I just want to watch streaming video on like you tube and stuff, am i on the right track?

I think that's the old URL for Medibuntu (http://medibuntu.org/).

I recommend you to check its instructions here (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu).

[lozanoa11]

that is what i have been folowing and when i get to the gpg key part i get that error:
W: Failed to fetch http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/repo/dists/jaunty/non-free/i18n/Translation-en_US.bz2 Could not resolve 'medibuntu.sos-sts.com'

W: Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems

[kostkon]

First of all, do a

sudo apt-get update
in a terminal and post the output here.

Also, do:

gedit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list
and post its contents here.

Also, to be sure, do:

gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
and post again the contents here.

for the first one:

OK. I'll give you a quick fix. Open a terminal and give the following command (it will ask for a password, give yours):

gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
and delete these lines:

save, and then do a

sudo apt-get update
and everything should be OK.

[lozanoa11]

gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
and it seems to be ok. no errors any way. thanks

Yeah, sorry about this. :frown:

I hope you didn't change the contents of the file

/etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list
It should contain the following lines:

## Please report any bug on https://bugs.launchpad.net/medibuntu/

Now do a

sudo apt-get update
to be sure.

Do you mean Flash videos or avi/mp4/other videos embedded in pages?

[lozanoa11]

It seems that you have duplicate entries in

/etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list
Post its output again here if you want, doing

gedit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list

For Flash, try installing the flashplugin-nonfree package from Synaptic.

For other videos, I believe you'll need to install the totem-mozilla package, if it not already installed. It is the Totem plugin for Firefox but I think Opera will pick it up and use it.

You could also install the ubuntu-restricted-extras package to get some more codecs among other things.

And finally, the windows codecs package called w32codecs (or w64codecs if you have a 64bit system).

You can search for them and install them using Synaptic.

well video's work in firefox but not opera so ill have to try to find a solution for that or just use firefox.
