Hello,
I'm online with my new DSL connection for the first time using pppoe. everything works great only apt-get doesn't find any updates at all, the search for packages only checks locally, it seems. Notifier in taskbar shortly viewable than disappears when starting up KDE.
I tried some other commands I found during google and forum search, like 'sudo gksu “update-manager -c -d”', but not successful. Is there any alternative way to get updates or to fix the apt-get installation?
thanks in advance :)
Joerg
PS: please excuse if beginners question, I'm relatively new to linux
