Ok I have no idea what you mean here - follow the link in the post above and then follow the instructions contained on that page.

Short of us flying to you and setting it up for you I am not sure how much easier it can be made

I seriously doubt however that you are really ready for the extras repositories.

Sounds like you've broke something while trying to install from the x-terminal.

A reason why there are warnings against this and strong recommendations that users don't do this.

Without knowing exactly what you tried to "install", what you ran, and exact error outputs - we cannot help you.

I would strongly recommend that if you *do* get this working again, to stop at extras-testing, or just extras. Extras-devel can and does cause other problems that I don't think you're equipped to handle just yet.

There is not going to be as many apps.. especially some of your emulators you want.. but it's just plain safe for you for now until those emulators move forward to more stable repositories.

i tried to install winff video convrter from official website and it says about going to xterminal and do sudo apt add
the link is
http://code.google.com/p/winff/wiki/DebianInstallation
can you help

*sigh* Yes.. that is for Ubuntu and Debian not Maemo.

You should not be following instructions on random websites in your X-Terminal.

WinFF may be possible to run on your N900 but I doubt those repositories at that link will do armel.

You could have easily messed something up in the apt sources.list file which is causing your catalog problem.

Reflash your phone and when it's working again please DON'T add the extra repositories...
