Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Can you try with latest Ubuntu release? Thanks in advance.

Dear Jean,

Txs,

Sorry, I had forgotten to write that I was able to move on to Xubuntu 9.4 and now even 9.10. (I think I got my working updates from another / the main server?! instead of one closby in Europe).

So far so good, it seemed.

Now, but I realise this is a new problem, my system doesn't seem to be able to update: since last week every time it tells that there are 34 "important security updates" (Xubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala).
And when downloading/ installing them via "update manager" or the terminal, my system "freezes": nothing workes anymore, and I have to restart the pc manually by un- and replugging the electricity cable.

If you happen to have a solution for this one, please explain it to me.

Thank you,

Tinus.

Thanks for following up. I'm closing this report due to your last comment regarding the primary issue being fixed.

I have no explanation for the update issue. You should file a new report against 'update-manager' and attach the file /var/log/apt/term.log.

Thank you and don't hesitate to submit any new bug.
