Where/how were you trying to check this?
You can do it visually from Synaptic, or from the command line try:
Code:
cat /etc/apt/sources.list
I'm trying to pull it up in the terminal, because just as I thought I had 2 of the same line in there, and was just wanting to edit the other out. Normally I would just type in the following:
Code:
sudo /etc/apt/sources.list
You are missing a command after the sudo.
Sudo only gives you a root privilege so if you want to edit /etc/apt/sources.list, you need to also include an editor.
Code:
sudo nano -Bw /etc/apt/sources.list
Eeeeewwwww! nano?! For real?
But he's right, the command you are entering is trying to run sources.list as a program, which it isn't.
You need to tell it which program you want to use. There are a number of text editors available: gedit, kate, emacs, vim, vi, nano, pico...
I suggest you pick one, get used to it, and then make fun of other people for using an "inferior" one. It's a very Linux thing to do.
