Hi guys,

long ago I tried to install the Speed Dreams car simulator game on Linux Mint 15. (was not succes, but it doesn't matter now).
Since that I quite often get this message in terminal when I do any other things:
"
WARNING:root:could not open file '/etc/apt/sources.list.d/speed-dreams-ppa-raring.list'
"
How could I remove it?
Thank you!

I think removing the PPA file will work. You can always open up Software Updater and click Settings and untick the PPA there if necessary. That error is probably coming from the server no longer responds or the installation is not able to support running the application.

Hi, I tried these and I got error messages.
But meantime i removed manually the ppa file. Maybe this is the reason why the commands suggested by you are not working.
Thank you anyway, we will see whether the warning message in terminal will appear again or not.

Well, first I had unclicked the PPA in the Software Updater, but it was not enough. I think it just puts a # into the file, in front of the text in the file. But now I've deleted the file, hope it will be enough.
Thanks.

Hope it works too. Or you could resort to the ole trick of reinstalling and removing it, but that is a little trickier in Linux sometimes.
