Hello All,
Just setup Ubuntu 14.04 console on my BB-XM. I'm trying to install LXDE but problem is I keep seeing errors such as:
I've can ping google successfully
I've run
But still not working.
Any thoughts? Thanks,
Leo
Just setup Ubuntu 14.04 console on my BB-XM. I'm trying to install LXDE but problem is I keep seeing errors such as:
Err http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ trusty/main libcap-ng0 armhf 0.7.3-1ubuntu2
Something wicked happened resolving 'ports.ubuntu.com:http' (-5 - No address associated with hostname)
I've can ping google successfully
I've run
sudo apt-get clean
&
sudo apt-get -y install lxde lxde-core lxde-icon-theme --fix-missing
But still not working.
Any thoughts? Thanks,
Leo

It looks a bit odd to me that 'ports.ubuntu.com:http', it shouldn't
have the http on the end though that *might* simply be an error in the
error message.
Can you 'ping ports.ubuntu.com' ?

It means that there's some sort of DNS problem.

since you did not mention if you did all these steps please try these steps and see what you come up with.
Side note: I've never actually run into this problem personally, but googled the error ( seemed a fairly common search term ) and came up with loads of hits.--

Further to my last message I believe I've rectified the problem. I was using non-standard DNS servers. Restoring them to ISP standard servers seems to have fixed the issue.
Thanks again for the help.

now but repos.rcn-ee.net has stopped working.
I think your fundamental problem is with your internet connection
and/or ISP, nothing to do with BBB or Ubuntu.
