Hey..
I have a small alert sign in my notification area from update manager... I created the fault myself, which was very stupid and now i don't know how to fix it.

It says:
Failed to download repository information

(INFO):
W:Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/eee-control/eee-control/ubuntu/dists/maverick/main/source/Sources.gz 404 Not Found
, W:Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/eee-control/eee-control/ubuntu/dists/maverick/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz 404 Not Found
, E:Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

What i did wrong, because i know only very little about ubuntu, was:
I was trying to ad another software source in Software center - edit - software sources -other software... And then by trying to delete what i added, because i was just playing around i think i deleted something else as well....


Can i do anything to restore it back??

KIND REGARDS,
Rune lacroix

Go to Software Center > Edit > Software Sources > Other Software Tab and disable any Launchpad PPAs from there.

Now go to Applications > Accessories > Terminal and do this command.


sudo apt-get update

If that still contains errors, post the output of above mentioned as well as this one.


cat /etc/apt/sources.list

Add the missing GPG key by


sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys DB141E2302FDF932

And then,


sudo apt-get update

Good Luck!

.... That is sad...

So it makes sense that the error disappeared when i disabled the PPA's
