That did it! What is the recommended sources.list now?
This is what is in it presently:
deb http://packages.linuxmint.com/ nadia main upstream import
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ quantal main restricted universe
multiverse
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ quantal-updates main restricted

what if I were to move the lines in sources.list.d into sources.list?
one final question for tonight: what is the purpose of sources.list.save

grep -ri medibuntu /etc/apt/
If the above spits out anything, you'll know what file to edit.

Good plan. Unfortunately 'medibuntu' is not to be found

some of the medibuntus I had deleted were back.

Looks like you removed the package database that apt
creates from a
package repository entry. All you need to do to get rid of a
repository is to delete the config file for it out of the
apt config
at /etc/apt/sources.list.d/<a___file_in_here.list> or to
remove the
line from the config file at /etc/apt/sources.list.
After you've done that, just run "apt-get update" and it
will clean
out all the repositories that don't exist anymore as well
as update
all the ones that still do.
After that, symantic should start working again.

Some index files failed to download. They have been

old ones
used instead.
I then clicked update and now it says my system is
up to date
but when
'refresh' is clicked I still get the medibuntu error?
