Cannot download skype on my ubuntu 10.04 LTS

If you run:

sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get -y upgrade

Is it smooth?

If so then enable the partner repo in software centre and skype will be available to you.

Hi!

Yes i do run the sudo apt -get update & sudo apt-get -y upgrade,

but i dont know how to enable the repo in software center.. do u have the link? i look for other sources but i cant find it.

Thanks alot!

In software centre click

edit -> sources

and you can enable it there.

in my software sources this are my choices:

* Unsupported updates
* Unsupported updates ( Source Code)
* http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu jaunty partner
* http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu jaunty partner (Source Code)
* http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-audio-dev/ppa/ubuntu lucid main
* http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/debian/stable main
* http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu lucid partner

which sources im going to edit? sorry just new with ubuntu..

Jaunty is no longer supported in ANY way. Karmic and Hardy desktop are also EOL (End of life later this month). Jaunty support ended a while ago. I suggest you upgrade to Lucid

Ok. So its not complicated to upgrade from Lucid? and where can i get a Lucid upgrade?

Thank u

Can you give the output of:

lsb_release -a

Thanks

No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS
Release: 10.04
Codename: lucid

not sure if this is right.. i open the terminal ang type the lsb_release -a and thats the result.

Ok then I suggest you edit the line so it says lucid instead of jaunty

Hi there!

Just get back. anyway, i figure it out on how to download skype. i enjoy using it right now.

Thanks for the big help.

Cheers!
