Two identical nettops, sitting 6 feet apart, running 32bit 14.04 Unity/firefox browser/w/google search after a October 2014 online auto-upgrade from 12.04 (only ubuntu-no Microsoft/wine/adobe, propietary allowed in this house) both, on the same broadband.
When these two received upgrade notifications back in October both were auto-upgraded. one unit took the program upgrade and has worked fine ever since....... the other "sister-computer" has had constant, never-ending, mess-in-its-pants problems that noone on here has been able to help me with for the last 8 months.
The "one" computer loaded up 14.04 and immediately created five vinstant /new problems :
1) it "lost" the ubuntu software center (it Unity icon-loads, goes through the whirly-circle "loading process", flashes briefly on the monitor, and then is gone), the many many many hours of wasted "fixes" and attempted repairs by the experts accomplished nothing.
2) it placed a red do not enter circle in my header, that says:
Unknown Error:'<class'SystemError'>'
(E:Type'debhttp://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/' is not known on line 1 in sources.list.d/google.list)'
packages have unmet dependencies--- which no one on here has been able to solve, all the wasted hours have gone nowhere !
3) it replaced my 12.04 google chrome browser with Firefox, and made chrome absolutely unloadable or available ever again ! (even after the accumulated sixteen long hours of ubuntu online help suggestions and failed attempts by the supposed ubuntu experts).
4) it makes any attempt to use the clumsy/dumb terminal fail with a notice of:
E: Type 'debhttp://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/' is not known on line 1 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google.list
E: The list of sources could not be read.
5) the Terminal failure on all other sometimes five minute long operations always ends saying something about: the inability to read an Opera file and a google chrome stable file, (I cannot find that exact fault wording right now,)
I am ready to become a single computer user, since 14.04 has destroyed mine..... I have three very large intl websites up on bluefish/Gftp and cannot screw around with a strip and reload, I need help !!1
I have spent (wasted) easily overy 150 hours trying to follow the experts advice, nothing works ! 14.04 screwed up "my" computer big-time,
