How did you add the PPA?

Gnome3 is NOT stable in Natty and it will more than likely cause issues.

If you take a look here:

http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntugnometeam/

you can see that the gnome3 directory is not there (anymore).

So the error messages (error 404) are normal. The directory is not on the website anymore.

Same problem in http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntu-desktop/

The directory gnome3-builds has disappeared on the website.

So you need to remove those invalid PPA entries in Software Sources....

Can you help with this problem?
