Hi Guys,

Having an issue here with my update manager. It's popping up with the following error:


'E:Type 'n' is not known on line 1 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/dockbar-main-ppa-maverick.list'

Here's the sources.list:


# deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 10.10 _Maverick Meerkat_ - Release i386 (20101007)]/ maverick main restricted

Any ideas? Line 1 doesn't list anything to do with dockbar.

It's not the sources.list that has the error, it's /etc/apt/sources.list.d/dockbar-main-ppa-maverick.list

Open the file for editing as root and you will probably see the error:

gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/dockbar-main-ppa-maverick.list
