Hi guys,
This is an excellent tutorial. but i’m getting some problem on my ubuntu box. i have just installed ubuntu 8.04. and I’m getting following error
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
beryl-settings-bindings: Depends: python (< 2.5) but 2.5.2-0ubuntu1 is to be installed
Ubuntu 8.04 has python 2.5.2 installed by default. Now how do i downgrade my python version. and i have one more doubt. If i do so, it may brake my existing package, may be based upon python 2.5.
Any reliable sulution.

Hi,
I am stuck at the part where I need to edit /etc/apt/sources.list file, when I enter sudo vi /etc/apt/sources.list it comes up with an error:
E325: ATTENTION
Found a swap file by the name “/etc/apt/.sources.list.swp”

(1) Another program may be editing the same file.
If this is the case, be careful not to end up with two
different instances of the same file when making changes.
Quit, or continue with caution.
(2) An edit session for this file crashed.
If this is the case, use “:recover” or “vim -r /etc/apt/sources.list”
to recover the changes (see “:help recovery”).
If you did this already, delete the swap file “/etc/apt/.sources.list.swp”
to avoid this message.
“/etc/apt/sources.list” 59 lines, 3402 characters
when I hit enter it comes up with something but I am not sure how to add anything to it? What am I doing wrong?
Some help would be greatly appreciated
try to do the following command
sudo rm /etc/apt/.sources.list.swp
Now you try to edit your file and check
