Hi, trying to install Kodi on new install of Zorin 10 lite using following commands taken from http://kodi.wiki/view/HOW-TO:Install_Kodi_for_Linux
sudo apt-get install software-properties-common
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install kodi
everything is ok but faced a problem at end of sudo apt-get update ....
I realise this is because there are two entries in the sources list one for vivid and one for xenial
I can see them both in the graphical "Software & Updates" other Software tab.
I don't think I need the entry for xenial as I understand zorin 10 lite is based on ubuntu vivid and all the other entries confirm this to be the case.
I tried to select the zenial entry in "Software & Updates" window but can't seem to be able to delete it. is it protected in some way, i.e. view only?
Is there another way through the terminal? I'm quite new to linux but can use the nano command in terminal
I tried following ....
nano /etc/apt/sources.list
but can't see the xenial in the list, is there another list ?
when I cd /etc/apt/sources.list.d I can see following .....
is it ok to just delete the following list....
I know this might be a silly question but I'm not confident to just go ahead and do it unless i know it is the correct way to do it and not cause any problems elsewhere.
this is my first install of zorin and so far it is going very well. very fast for just 2GB RAM on my old DELL Inspiron M5030 from 2010.
thanks in advance
