EDIT: I'm sorry for not trying harder to figure this out... I chose a different mirror, one at xmission, and now can update and install. Sorry for posting prematurely.
Hi, I thought I'd give Ubuntu another shot. I had problems the last few times but forgot what they were. This one's new. I just installed 10.04 amd64 on my Core 2 Duo machine. It runs fine, but apt-get, synaptic and the update manager can't connect to the main update server or the Canadian mirror. My network is running fine though. So I can't get any of the programs I need or security updates. Not even a compiler to build an IRC client!
