I am beginner in Ubuntu. I am unable to install any software. For example, whenever i try to use Ubuntu software center to install VLC media player, it shows following notice:
Failed to download repository information
check your internet connection
I searched on google about installing softwares on Ubuntu and tried to use the command i found for installing VLC media player on terminal.
First i typed command sudo apt-get update
and i get this on my terminal -----
