433209	2006-02-23 22:39:00	i just installed ubuntu and added some extra repositories just like teh unofficial guide says. ubuntuguide.org when i run 'sudo apt-get update' it comes back with like a whole load of crap and a few errors. and ive also noticed it doesnt show any version of firefox newer than 1.0.7 which honestly annoys me. this is exactly what it comes back with root@Sigma:/home/mirddes # sudo apt-get update Ign http://ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net hoary-backports Release.gpg Ign http://ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net hoary-extras Release.gpg Ign http://ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net hoary-backports Release Get:1 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com hoary Release.gpg [189B] Get:2 http://archive.ubuntu.com hoary Release.gpg [189B] Get:3 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com hoary-updates Release.gpg [189B] Ign http://ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net hoary-extras Release Get:4 http://security.ubuntu.com hoary-security Release.gpg [189B] Get:5 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com hoary Release [26.2kB] Ign ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net hoary-backports Packages Ign ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net hoary-backports Packages Ign ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net hoary-backports Packages Get:6 http://archive.ubuntu.com hoary Release [26.2kB] Get:7 http://security.ubuntu.com hoary-security Release [23.0kB] Ign ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net hoary-backports Packages Ign ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net hoary-extras Packages Ign ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net hoary-extras Packages Ign ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net hoary-extras Packages Ign ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net hoary-extras Packages Err ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net hoary-backports Packages 404 Not Found Err ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net hoary-backports Packages 404 Not Found Err ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net hoary-backports Packages 404 Not Found Err ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net hoary-backports Packages 404 Not Found Get:8 ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net hoary-extras Packages [2492B] Get:9 ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net hoary-extras Packages [2944B] Get:10 ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net hoary-extras Packages [33B] Get:11 ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net hoary-extras Packages [4516B] Get:12 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com hoary-updates Release [16.8kB] Get:13 security.ubuntu.com hoary-security Packages [84.8kB] Get:14 archive.ubuntu.com hoary Packages [88.4kB] Get:15 us.archive.ubuntu.com hoary Packages [490kB] Get:16 security.ubuntu.com hoary-security Packages [3809B] Get:17 security.ubuntu.com hoary-security Sources [20.5kB] Get:18 security.ubuntu.com hoary-security Sources [840B] Get:19 security.ubuntu.com hoary-security Packages [56.9kB] Get:20 archive.ubuntu.com hoary Sources [48.4kB] Get:21 security.ubuntu.com hoary-security Sources [8315B] Get:22 us.archive.ubuntu.com hoary Packages [4374B] Get:23 us.archive.ubuntu.com hoary Sources [175kB] Get:24 us.archive.ubuntu.com hoary Sources [1320B] Get:25 us.archive.ubuntu.com hoary Packages [2169kB] Get:26 us.archive.ubuntu.com hoary Sources [857kB] Get:27 us.archive.ubuntu.com hoary-updates Packages [18.6kB] Get:28 us.archive.ubuntu.com hoary-updates Packages [14B] Get:29 us.archive.ubuntu.com hoary-updates Sources [5489B] Get:30 us.archive.ubuntu.com hoary-updates Sources [14B] Fetched 4135kB in 25s (162kB/s) Failed to fetch ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net 404 Not Found Failed to fetch ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net 404 Not Found Failed to fetch ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net 404 Not Found Failed to fetch ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net 404 Not Found Reading package lists...

433210	2006-02-23 22:50:00	Are you sure you are running Ubuntu 5.04 (Hoary), because the latest version of Ubuntu is 5.10 (Breezy Badger) which was released last October. Where did you get the installation disk from? You may be following the wrong guide, and have confused the system by adding repositories belonging to a previous version.	Jen (38)
