Ubuntu 11.04 is not a long term support release, so you will have to update from 10.04 to 10.10 and then from 10.10 to 11.04.

First, make sure your 10.04 system is itself fully up to date:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Then, follow these instructions (under "Network upgrade for Ubuntu servers" -- it's OK if you're system is not an Ubuntu Server system): http://www.ubuntu.com/download/ubuntu/upgrade

Then you'll have to do that again (though you won't have to edit /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades again) to upgrade from 10.10 to 11.04.

Can you help with this problem?
