I have a pretty new installation, and this week tried to add a vlc server application. That seems to have broken something, as I now have the warning bar that indicates a "serious problem." Digging around it seems to be a failed to load the package list error. So I searched through the forums and found some solutions. Those don't seem to be helping me, though. Here's my latest attempt at fixing this through the terminal

Here's the error window I get. It seems to have some extra information, but I can't seem to find the file it refers to. (sorry - I can't post the actual images; just a link)

I'd be really grateful if someone might point me in a good direction for fixing this. My linux knowledge is fairly limited. Thanks!

Two problems:

  1. You tried to fetch http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/trusty.list, and made a typo to http://www.mediabuntu.org/sources.list.d/trusty.list. The program (or the ISP) you used to obtain it saw that this domain doesn't exist, and sent you down a DNS Search website. It's more likely to be your ISP, since the website says Time Warner Cable. This created an HTML file, which caused the syntax errors. Note that www.medibuntu.org doesn't exist either, which brings me to:
  2. Medibuntu is dead: The Medibuntu Project has come to an end - what do I do now? In most cases, you don't need it anymore, and are better off installing packages from the official repos.

For the moment, delete the Medibuntu source:

sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/mediabuntu.list
