Ubuntu Installation :: Install Medibuntu Repository From Command Line
Apr 7, 2011
I recently discovered the medibuntu repository and wanted to add the repository to synaptic. I copied and pasted the code from this: [URL] web page on medibuntu.org's website.
The attachment shows exactly what the terminal spit out after running this command (and the command that was run - of course). What I am wondering about is the last six lines - which seem to indicate that, at a minumum, getting some key was not successful. I'm not sure how important this is; but, since I don't actually have anything I need to install from this repository right now, I wanted to be sure I'm squared away for when a time may come in the future.
After running the command I did the following to try and determine the status:
I went into synaptic > settings > repositories and looked under two of the tabs to see what was there:
The tab, "Other Sortware" Lists two entries at the bottom that stood out to me. They are:
Medibuntu - Ubuntu 11.04 "natty narwhal" (http:// packages.medibuntu.org/natty free non free) which was checked.
And:
Medibuntu (Source) - Ubuntu 11.04 "natty narwhal" (http:// packages.medibuntu.org/natty free non free) (Source Code) which was not checked.
The tab, "Authentication" lists a total of three entries. Their descriptions are:
Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key
Ubuntu CD Image Automatic Signing Key
And:
Ubuntu Extras Archive Automatic Signing Key
None of those (under this Authentication tab) strike me as having anything to do with medibuntu (could be wrong though - just not sure).
Finally, I did a search in synaptic for a library I think should be available through medibuntu, "libdvdcss." I was presented with a list of eight items, none of them matching libdvdcss by title. The closest match by title and description that I could identify was, "libdvdread4" This I did as a sort of test to see if I might be accessing that repository.

I'm using Ubuntu 10.10 (i guess 64 bits), not the Maverick version but the new 10.10. My laptop is Acer Aspire 5715Z.
Now I was on this website and tried to add the repository to get the Medibuntu packages with the following code:
Code:
sudo wget --output-document=/etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/$(lsb_release -cs).list && sudo apt-get --quiet update && sudo apt-get --yes --quiet --allow-unauthenticated install medibuntu-keyring && sudo apt-get --quiet update

Couple of days I go I setup VLC using Kubuntu's graphic software manager, and installed the 3 plug-ins, one of which was related to pulse. After doing this sound stopped working in flash videos. I had read, not sure where, that Kubuntu didn't use pulse (which slipped my mind when setting up VLC).
So I make the mistake of removing everything which had pulse in it's name (again, via the graphic software manager). A message popped-up saying that some packages needed to be removed/edited (a LONG list, a big clue that I was doing something stupid I guess). I let it run it's course and after that it won't boot properly.
If I boot it normally it hangs at the Kubuntu screen with the five dots filling endlessly. If I press F1 it's stuck at "checking battery status."
Recovery mode boots, but the recovery option does nothing.
So I was wondering if I could boot into recovery mode and go into the terminal and add a live USB as a repository for apt, and try to salvage the install?
Or should I admit defeat and reinstall?

Just installed Lucid from CD ROM. I have 2 HDDs. When the install screen came to ask about partitions, it didn't seem to want me to install it onto the same HDD as my XP/Ubuntu 9.10 partitions, so I installed it onto my other HDD. After it finished, I restarted and it appeared on GRUB. It takes me to a command line where it asks me for my desktop login and then my password.
It allows me to type in my login, but the password isn't so easy. It won't let me type it in. It's as if the keyboard stops working apart from the return key. I have no understanding of command line. As soon as I'd entered my password, it went on to tell me that there were no packages to install, and then stayed on command line as if I'd just opened a terminal. How would I get it to take me to my desktop?

I cannot install Kubuntu 8.04LTS. When I run the Live CD and click to install it gets me the box that should show me my hard drives and possible partitions but the box is empty. I get the same when booting to the Live CD and clicking on install. I have had this CD since Kubuntu 8.04 was released. So not knowing what might be wrong I figure I will ask here for what to type in a command line to install it. I know it is an old version but it is the last one with KDE 3.5.

is there any way to do a 11.04 Alternate Command Line Install without Internet Connection? I try to install Ubuntu on a Internet-Tablet, wich has no Ethernet-Port and I don't know how to get Wifi to work during Alternate-Install. At previous Ubuntu versions it was possible to let network be unconfigured and install completely from CD or USB-Stick. Isn't this possible in current versions?

When you add medibuntu to 10.04, isn't there supposed to be a "medibuntu" sub-category on the left side? I installed the medibuntu repo expecting that I'd find google earth in there. But when I added it, I didn't see it listed there - even after rebooting.

I have been working on Redhat family of distributions since past 1 year. Two days back I installed Ubuntu 10.04 on my laptop. I am novice to Package Management in Debian family of Linux distributions. My Internet connection is working fine. But I am not able to install any package with apt-get package Manager. Here is my /etc/apt/sources.list file
Code:
deb http://in.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid main restricted
deb-src http://in.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid main restricted

I've been trying to add (via terminal) a ppa:<name> from this site (finally got around to getting a Wacom Bamboo), but every time I try to do as it suggests, I get the following error:
Code:
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:hughescih/ppa
sudo: add-apt-repository: command not found
I found I already had this installed, but to double-check,I've uninstalled and re-installed it to make sure, and still to no avail. I wasn't sure if I'm still missing something or what the deal may be.

I had my Logitech Webcam/mic working perfectly, in 8.10, but when I upgraded to 9.10, the video stopped working. The camera works in lots of other software,Cheese to luvcview to testing with gstreamer-properties But Skype's video crashes when I try to use the video camera. Usually a segmentation fault.
Lots of other threads here suggest that using the version of skpye packages in medibuntu is the solution. So I added medibuntu to my /etc/apt/sources.list, reloaded to get the latest directories. I don't see any "skype" to install, either in Synaptics or in the shell with apt-get Output from apt-cache search is
# apt-cache search skype
skytools - Database management tools from Skype to PostgreSQL
python-skype - Skype API wrapper for Python
skysentials - extra functionalities for Linux Skype client
skype-mid - Skype for MIDs
p.s. any one have clues as to why this broke going from 9.04 to 9.10?

If my understanding is correct, is aptitude not a better way to install software from the command line than apt-get is? aptitude installs all recommended dependencies correct?

I've just spent the longest afternoon trying to get Natty command line install to work. Okay lets list the problems first:Alsa not working so no soundUser privileges messed upWireless doesn't work Realtek rtl8192cu previously worked under 10.04 and 10.10Initial boot left me with a blank screen. I had to boot to grub and use the root console to install xdm which I normally don't use. I also had to install Openbox and some basic utilities from root console just to get a desktop.I've been doing command line install since 8.04 and have never had so many problems.
