[CiaoCiao]

I'm no expert so here is the results of a quick google to help get you started...

From this link here (http://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=596516&pid=588946108&st=0&#entry588946108)

"disable the cdrom as a repository in synaptic. "

It worked for someone else 2 years ago... :)

I would suggest trying a different server. Go to System-->Administration-->Software Sources, click the download from dropdown and select Other, then click the Select Best Server Button, once it has finished clcik the Choose Server button. Reload the repositories and try to upgrade.

thanks for that it was the server , it must have been down or something, any way the best server option worked,


another example of how helpful the ubuntu community is:mrgreen:

thanks again
