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

Hi Hartanto,

Have you try to search vlc-nox from terminal?
sudo apt-cache search vlc-nox

If it's on the repository, I think you have no trouble install vlc from terminal.

Would you mind give me the output of this command:
cat /etc/apt/sources.list

Copy all the output then paste here.
Thank you..

There are (at least) 2 issues in the Terminal output above:

Issue 1:

The following packages will be REMOVED:
  libcddb2* libdirac-decoder0* libdvbpsi7* libebml3* libiso9660-7* libtar0*
  libupnp3* libva-x11-1* libvcdinfo0* libvlc5* libvlccore4* libxcb-keysyms1*
  libxcb-randr0* libxcb-xv0* vlc-data*
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 15 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
15 not fully installed or removed.
After this operation, 28.6 MB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue [Y/n]? y ----------> TYPE IN Y instead of y

Instead of typing in the small y, you need to press the capital Y key to let apt-get proceed with the removal of those packages.

Issue 2:

Get:32 http://archive.ubuntu.com oneiric/universe Sources [4677 kB]
Ign http://www.debian-multimedia.org sid/main Translation-en

You are running Ubuntu 11.10, but you are mixing repositories from sid (Debian) and oneiric (Ubuntu) in your /etc/apt/sources.list file or in the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ directory. Mixing repositories from significantly different distributions can and will break your install, as you are experiencing right now.

You will need to remove all lines containing sid in your /etc/apt/sources.list file or in the /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ directory, because you are running Ubuntu, NOT Debian.

Run this command:

gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list

Using the gedit editor, remove the following 2 lines:

deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org sid main non-free
deb-src http://www.debian-multimedia.org sid main non-free

Then save the change to the /etc/apt/sources.list file.

Can you help with this problem?
