Hi ,

Sorry to take so long in replying to you , I was at church
this morning .

And also thank you for your welcome to the 'Ubuntu Community'.

Unfortunately the solution you asked me to try did not work . I tried
to download from 3 other servers and the response was always the
same , the download stops at 5% .

PAX , John.

Subject: [Bug 511632] Re: cannot download gstreamer0.10plugins bad

Thanks for responding so quickly. I would just like to take a moment to
say "Welcome to the Ubuntu community!"

As for your bug, I think we are looking at a problem with the mirror
server that your computer is attempting to download from. Could you
please go to System -> Administration -> Software Sources. Once the
window opens up, you should find the "Ubuntu Software" tab selected. One
of the options is a drop-down menu next to "Download from:" If you click
on that drop-down menu, you will find the option of "Other..." Could you
please select "Other..." and choose a different server that is located
relatively close to your location? Afterwards, you can close that
window. You should then open a terminal and run 'sudo apt-get update'
(without the quotation marks) so your computer will get the information
it needs from those servers. After that, could you try once more to
download the gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad package? Hopefully the download
will be successful. If it is, then you can either choose to return the
Software Sources settings to their default, or you can leave them
changed, it doesn't matter. If it does not work, then please try one or
two more servers, just in case you happened to choose the server your
computer was already trying to download from.

After you have tried the above solution, please leave a comment letting
us know whether or not it worked so we know if we can close this report
or if we must investigate it further.

Thank you and good luck!
