<div>Hello Scott. Just getting back to this after a long day at work. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Would it be appropriate for me to copy your sources.list file? I think that's where the repositories are recorded, and where apt-get gets its information. </div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div> Regards, </div>
<div> </div>

<div>Good morning, Scott. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>I tried sudo apt-get install erlang. It said "E: Couldn't find package erlang." </div>
<div> </div>
<div>I think my problem is that my sources.list file doesn't have the right entries. When I go to System -> Administration -> Update Manager, it says "New distribution release '9.04' is available." (I guess I was inaccurate that I am already at 9.0.4) When I click Upgrade, it says "Upgrading to a no longer supported version." When I click past that, it says "Extracting the upgrade failed. There may be a problem with the network or with the server." All my interactions with the internet work great. There is no firewall (I'm in my house). I think it's the server. Specifically, not pointing to a valid server. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>If in the Update Manager, instead of clicking Update, I click Check, it says "Downloading package information" for a while, then it says "Could not download all repository indexes." I think my problem is " . . . ensure the repository address in the preferences is correct." It gives me a long list of complaints, from "Failed to fetch <a href="http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/intrepid-security/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz" target="_blank">http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/intrepid-security/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz</a> 404 Not found [IP: 91.189.92.167 80]" through "Failed to fetch <a href="http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/intrepid-updates/multiverse/source/Sources.gz" target="_blank">http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/intrepid-updates/multiverse/source/Sources.gz</a> 404 Not found [IP: 91.189.92.171 80]" <br>
</div>
<div>I hope this is enough information to enable you to deduce what the problem is. I hope your day is productive and pleasant. </div>
