hmm

Try the following David if you could:

Applications > Terminal

Type/Copy Paste at the command prompt hitting enter after each line:
sudo cp /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.backup
then
sudo sed -i 's/feisty/gutsy/g' /etc/apt/sources.list
then
sudo apt-get update

After that's all completed, go back to System > Administration >
Update Manager and if it's not there already, click 'Check'.


We'll get there eventually!
