Update Version 2.6.24.18.20 fails to install on Ububntu 8.04 LTS AMD64. The CPU Is an Intel Core2. After clicking on the update icon, the list of updates appears, but when I click on install, the small ball rotates indefinitely. I have tried rebooting, and removing some of the checked updates and get the same result. When I boot the Update Manager while disconnected from the internet, the list of updates appear, and the incessantly rotating ball appears just as it does when I am connected when I click on install. The only way to get rid of the rotating ball is to reboot. But the update icon appears almost immediately. When I click on install, the whole process begins again. If, after reboot, i click on install, all other programs seem to work correctly but the system slows down. However, if I ignore this beckoning icon, the system seems to function normally.
