[SOLVED] Updates not found, not installed. Jaunty beta.
Ok, so I been running the beta for Jaunty for about a month now. Had problems with Network Manager that got resolved (with your help of course!). Now, I am trying to install updates, knowing the final release is tomorrow. But I keep getting the following errors each time:
W: Failed to fetch URL here.deb
404 Not Found [IP: 91.189.88.46 80]
That is just an example, I cannot list them all because I'm not being allowed to post urls.
Any ideas?

In case changing Repos doesn't work, post the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list file here.
It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

Thanks for the help, guys! I will try the Repos first when I get home from work. If that doesn't work, I will post the contents of source.list for Casper. I appreciate the tips! I don't know what is wrong with my netbook, my desktop loaded up all the latest ones just fine.

Ok, the repos thing seemed to have worked and downloaded and installed all except one thing: the main Linux kernel. This is what is says:

good to hear it worked. Just know that right now there is a lot of strain on the servers because of people downloading the new version of Ubuntu so you may get some fails here or there for a week or two until it calms down....took me about half an hour today to get nvidia drivers installed right
