You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:

Still using terminal you need to type ( the system messages you post here has the instruction in it):

sudo apt-get -f install

give your user password when requested you will not see any backchars when you type it, then press enter

Then to be sure your system is fully up to date type

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Hope this helps

New to Ubuntu: read the Ubuntu Manual, it's very informative: http://ubuntu-manual.org/

Revision history for this message
Best Mark Rijckenberg (markrijckenberg) said : 		#5

Everything is solved, except for the following warning message:

W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/c-korn/vlc/ubuntu/dists/lucid/main/binary-amd64/Packages.gz 404 Not Found

If you check that website, you will see that the subdirectory vlc under directory c-korn does not exist anymore....

So you will need to remove the line(s) in the file /etc/apt/sources.list that refers to c-korn

Also delete any files in the /etc/apt/sources.list.d directory that contain c-korn in their name.
