can you get this url from your browser ?

and why you does not use this package from the ubuntu archive ? (via the package manager, ie synaptic, for example)

Hi dino99, thanks for your reply. I was trying to do this on both ways (Terminal and Synaptic), same error. Here's a screenshot from the Synaptic manager. I seem like someone has removed those files from launchpad.

That PPA doesn't have a precise repo, it only goes up to oneiric. I would remove it from your sources.

Ok, I'll see. Then any other/replacement recommendation for cpufreq-indicator? My notebook is quite hot even if I do nothing, I'd like do something with it. I used to have a lower temperature working on Windows. Any suggestions? Thanks guys

Here's are actual temps (just browsing the Forum now)

Code:

Adapter: Virtual device
temp1:        +48.0°C  (crit = +128.0°C)
temp2:         +0.0°C  (crit = +128.0°C)
temp3:        +34.0°C  (crit = +128.0°C)
temp4:        +46.0°C  (crit = +128.0°C)
temp5:        +26.0°C  (crit = +128.0°C)
temp6:         +0.0°C  (crit = +128.0°C)
temp7:         +0.0°C  (crit = +128.0°C)
temp8:         +0.0°C  (crit = +128.0°C)

I'm working on HP Probook 4530s (i3, 320/7200rpm, HD3000, 3GB RAM)

DemogorgonZ:

I'm getting the same errors with respect to various PPA on my first install..404 not found/ failed to fetch etc. Wondering what you did to solve your problem.

Thanks!

Hi,
I am using ubuntu 11.04 and my update message doesn't seems to work properly.
After, I click the 'check' button in the manager, I get an error message.
My error message is this:

Code:

W:Failed to fetch http://dl.google.com/linux/deb/dists...-i386/Packages  404  Not Found [IP: 173.194.36.9 80],
E:Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

Can someone help me with this?
