Re: [gNewSense-users] updates - linux 2.6.24-24-generic 2.6.24-24.61 - 404 not found

[Christophe Pisteur]

Hello,

I finaly succeed in installing gNS on my new laptop (problems are described 
below, in the first message). But what can interest other people is how: I did 
install gNS 2.2 (not 2.3), and all the updates worked fine. 

More interessting: when I did install, the first time, gNS 2.3, I had not only 
problem with the package linux 2.6.24-24-generic 2.6.24-24.61 - 404 not found. 
My computer became unstable: I spoke about graphic card, but I had also 
problems with keyboard (not the good langage after updates), and network 
doesn't work (not only wifi, also lan). 

So, I don't understand what happends with my gNS 2.3 installation (I checked 
the disk and the md5sum, of course). I just wanted to tell about my recent 
experience, and how I succeed in installing gNS on my new laptop. 

Thanks for your help.

Christophe
