Correct your sources.list accordingly
Then

sudo apt-get update

to reload the repos. There are many repos commented out, remove the # sign.

 

[Gigacore]

yeah.. i did sudo apt-get update.. and i couldnt get what about the last line please

 

[The_Devil_Himself]

^^the # sign before the repos means that thay aren't used(oir commented out),so first backup your sourcelist and then remove those # signs.

 

[Rahim]

Have you changed the sources.list by referring to my sources.list? Just remove the # sign from the sources.list drom those lines which start like
# deb *in.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ gutsy universe
and similar lines.

 

[Gigacore]

I'm sad with.. i was able to use CF, when i installed from the CD.. but now i've lost it..

Infra is rite, the emerald repos must be in the disk..

i think when digit guys made this dvd... there might be some prob linking those stuff

PLEASE HELP me

 

[The_Devil_Himself]

^^arre bose download from Net na then,whats the problem in that?

 

[Dark Star]

Just tell me 1 thing is everything is checked under Software Sources means options under Ubuntu SOftware / 3'rd party software / Updates

 

[Gigacore]

^ yeah.....

and today i did a reinstall and tried once again.. CF works fine at 800x600.. but once after switched to 1024x768... i got the same prob... so i switched back to 800x600 it still exists!!

 

[infra_red_dude]

What GFX card do you haf?

 

[phreak0ut]

I had the same problem when I installed CF. The way the problem got fixed is really strange. I went to Compiz Fusion settings and was checking out the features. The "Window Decorations" was enabled. I disabled and enabled and TADA! I've got Emerald! So, Giga, in case you already have Emerald installed, try out the method which worked for me. Else, try Window Manager as "Compiz" and select Window Decorator as "GTK Window Decorator"

 

[Rahim]

^^Sometimes it happen suddenly the top borders of the windows dissappear. I just do the same as phreak, the only difference is that i created a new profile in CCSM apart from the "Default" profile, and i load Default profile then again reload my profile and the settings takeover and the borders are back, ala emerald takes over the windows decoration.
