Hello everyone,
I'm using Linux Mint Maya 13 with XFCE 4desktop for a few days and now I'm having troubles.
Everytime I do

Code: Select all

$ sudo apt-get update

I get this:

I've searched a lot of solutions and nothing worked.
I would appreciate some help, and sorry if there's something wrong with the post, I'm new here

Thanks a lot!

Hello, fragamer.

Just for a try, open Synaptic and de-activate the following Launchpad PPAs:
+ elegant-gnome/ppa binary and sources
+ jcubicppa binary and sources
+ orta-desktop binary and sources
+ unity-team binary and sources

Then try again running

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get update

I wonder whether any of the 4 PPAs is of any use for systems running Mint 13 with Xfce?

Cheers,
Karl

Yes, that solved my problem!!
I think that was to install some theme, maybe I was installing the wrong stuff to XFCE.

Thanks a lot, karlchen
