[Macbook Air]Almost can't install any software on 9.04?

[flxfxp]

For almost every piece of software in the Synaptic Manager it says the following:

I never had this problem with 8.10. The 9.04 is a fresh installation, no upgrade.

Suggestions?

Thanks,

Anyone?

Did you use the correct cd for your processor type?
Does this problem happen when you run from the livecd also?

I used the normal x86 cd. I can't test it live because I temporarily borrowed a external dvd drive to install it. Is there any other Macbook air owner who is using jaunty?

Regards,

After updating updatemanager it doesn't give the error anymore.

However, I installed Desktop Effects, tried to enable it at Appereance settings and it says: "Could not be enabled"

Anyone?

Thanks,

Could it be that the nvidia drivers aren't installed? If so, how do I install them? The normal pkg1.run from nvidia itself doesnt seem to work.

you should use the hardware drivers tool to install the nvidia drivers.

The nvidia drivers don't show up though.

I have the same problem after upgrading from 8.10 to 9.04:

* nvidia drivers gone
* unable to install via System->Administration->Hardware Drivers (only wireless drivers show up)
* was not successful in installing myself
