    Software Upgrade

    I got a new problem... *sigh* here I was trying to get my Ubuntu nice and shinny, I installed a few packages for Gnome 3 and tried to get some new themes.

    God damnit, never more...

    Now, a "Prohibited" sign shows at the top of the screen (near those icons, at the top bar)
    It says

    "E:Type 'ain' not known in line 3 at font list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/gnome3-team-gnome3-precise.list"

    And Ubuntu software center doesn't work
    Help, please

    Hi, you just need to remove the "ain" from the bottom of the file. Run

    Code:
    gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list.d/gnome3-team-gnome3-precise.list
    to open it in a text editor. Remove the offending "ain", save and close, and run

    Code:
    sudo apt-get update
    and that should fix it!
