I also get the following; The repository may no longer be available or could not be contacted because of network problems. If available an older version of the failed index will be used.

Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead. Also, Update Manager says, "Your System is up-to date. The package information was last updated 55 days ago" I supposedly updated yesterday, so why does it say 55 days ago?
I upgraded to 10.04 and can't get flash to work. I tried to run the update package and got this message:

Last week, the little orange triangle that tells me I have updates to install turned up. When clicked, I got the Update Manager and when asking it to check on what's available it tried to download 70 some items, but stalled on number 47. I got a message: "Could not download all repository indexes." The box below contained a list of files, such as: "http:/security . . . etc." At the bottom of the list was the statement: "Some indexes failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead." From there all I can do is back out of the Update Manager. The orange triangle remains, and I get the same result when I click on it.

I changed a few files in a couple of folders that are installed from a synaptic package. How can I save the changes as an installation package or save the changes to the package and save the package as a file?

I am following this guide to installing eclipse via terminal command-line on Linux. However, this seems to be happening lately with all the packages I try to install..I checked the Synaptic Package Manager and reloaded and rebooted the computer, but to no avail.

my distribution is ubuntu 10.4.
I just finished installing a dual boot XP/Ubuntu 10.04 LTS for desktop about half an hour ago, and it's my first experience with a Linux OS. Now that my *complete idiot noob* flag is flying, I have an error I think I need to report:An error occurs with the Package Manager, I get this message when I try to run it, and when Ubuntu boots:
E: Encountered a Package with no Package: header
E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/apt/lists/

E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.
This usually means that your installed packages have unmet dependencies I tried to download and install Chrome, and it came up with a similar error.
Is my install corrupt/incomplete or something? My setup is a P4 2.4Ghz, 512Mb RAM, onboard graphics, wireless internet and the HDD is 40GB, split into 2 partitions, and my Ubuntu Partition is 10 GB. I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS distribution, and the other OS is Windows XP Professional SP3.I installed Ubuntu by using the Wubi installer.
I have a problem with the synaptic package manager. I can't refresh it.

What is wrong. How can I change the entries. Which one to remove ?
I just upgraded to ubuntu 10.04 via the alternate cd ISO image. I can log in to Ubuntu with my old password but sometimes, when i have to grant extra privileges, that same password doesn't work. I also get a small message saying the pass word I use to loging and the one used for 'keyring' are different. what's wrong? Is there any way I can correct this?

I have been trying for a couple days now to install 10.04 on a 250G hard drive that was a USB boot with 9.1. I want the hard drive in the case. The bios has been changed and does see the new drive. Boot selection has been changed to CD Rom. Everything starts out fine until step 4 of the install, Prepare partitions. There is no hard drive available on this step. The HDD is not seen by the disk utility either.
