Public bug reported: when i restarted ubuntu i got a a red icon with a white bar in the middle on the toolbar, it said to type in a command in the terminal to find a problem with the package list but when i looked for the terminal it wasnt there, so i went to the software center to check if it had uninstalled but it was showing as installed, after this i tried installing a different terminal but after the computer freezing for 40 seconds it would show the install tab again and say "failed to load package list" in the details it said "E:Read error - read (5: Input/output error), E:The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened."
i checked the dash home again to look for any of my apps but they too were gone, all that was left were the folders in home folder. i am using 32-bit Ubuntu 12.04 LTS from a Toshiba satellite A200, thats all i can find out sadly ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1162127 Title: unable to install updates or applications and all apps have disapeared To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1162127/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
