update-manager: cannot update Ubuntu 8.10

Asked by shack1069

Hi,

I have recently moved from Pakistan to Australia. I have installed Ubuntu 8.10 in Pakistan and there the update worked. I have adjusted the network IP addresses and other settings, but it fails to refresh its update list and cannot connect to any server.

What should I do?

Cheers,

Shack

Or try this: go to "System" "Administration" "Software Sources" and in the "Ubuntu Software" Tab, you can configure the download server and that one usually depends on the country.

Can you help with this problem?
