> I have been trying for couple of days now with the same error.  The strange thing is that I am getting the same error on two different machine, one using Feisty amd64 and another Feisty i386. I have been running Edgy for a while before on one of the machines and I had no problem until I upgraded to Feisty. The other machine (the AMD64 one) is a fresh installation.
