Hi, I'm trying to use the "Add/Remove" option in the "Accessories" menu from gnome desktop to install the assembler "nasm" and the editor "ghex2" but I get the following error "Unable to retrieve software information". I have access to the internet because I can access to Google pages and so on.. Robe.
It might have been some connection error .. I get that sometimes too .. btw .. sometimes DNS resolution might mess up if your router/computer are using IPv6 on a IPv4 network ..(all DNS resolves to 1.0.0.0) .. disabling IPv6 and setting the nameserver to your ISP nameserver IP instead of the router's IP helps .. -- ----------------------------------------------- regards Hikaru ----------------------------------------------- Mohd Izhar Firdaus Bin Ismail Amano Hikaru 天野晃 「あまの ひかる」 Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS ICT 2nd Year 1st Semester mohd.izhar.firdaus@xxxxxxxxx ----------------------------------------------- kagesenshi.87@xxxxxxxxx Blog: http://kagesenshi.blogspot.com -----------------------------------------------
