Re: Muon Software Center bug?
Close the app, and launch Muon Package Manager instead. Click Settings > Configure Software Sources > Updates and see if you can uncheck it.
If that doesn't work, edit (as root) /etc/apt/sources.list and comment the lines that contain oneiric-proposedWindows no longer obstructs my view.

Re: Muon Software Center bug?
Either right-click > Quit on the notifier applet, or click to open and then choose to Quit - don't permit it to run the update. This update notifier is likely preventing you from making the uncheck 'stick' while it is still running.Windows no longer obstructs my view.

Re: Muon Software Center bug?
could not get it to quit really, just close the window.
I looked at /etc/apt/sources.list and saw something that look like it was the problem.
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric-proposed restricted main multiverse universe
I commented that out and now the updater in the system try show what apt-get shows.
thanks for the help

Re: Muon Software Center bug?
The initial problem - not being able to un-check the Pre-release entry does appear to be a legitimate problem - I also experienced it, and I had to remove the entry from sources.list. I'll notify the developer.Windows no longer obstructs my view.

Re: Muon Software Center bug?
This is a reported bug in software-properties-kde which is called by Muon when selecting Settings > Configure Software Sources.

According to Michael Vogt (mvo), two days ago:
I merged this into the bzr+ssh://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/software-properties/oneiric branch and it will be part of the next SRU upload.Windows no longer obstructs my view.
