Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.

Since you only requested a single operation it is extremely likely that
the package is simply not installable and a bug report against
that package should be filed.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  samba: Depends: samba-common (= 3.0.28a-1ubuntu4) but 3.0.28a-1ubuntu4.8 is to be installed
E: Broken packages

samba-common is already the newest version.
The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
  libotr2 libsilc-1.1-2
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.

you share the folders i linux then access them from XP by clicking

start -> run and type:

//192.168.1.99
or
//<ubuntu systems host name>

you can also map a network drive if you wish

if you want to access a windows systems' shares then what you typed is correct. Or again, you can use hostname.
