Hi

Have just installed Ubuntu Hoary Hedgehog 5.04 onto my laptop. Everything is working fine (even my wireless card) other than Synaptic Package Manager.

Everytime I try and add a repository even the offical ones it fails to resolve them. If I then ping the URL for the repository and re-run Synaptic Package Manager it works fine but only for a short while.

Ping always works and after setting alias net-pf-10 off in /modprobe.d/aliases Firefox also works well.

I have spent some time looking through the forums and google trying to resolve this but have come up blank.

I access the internet via a ADSL Modem/Router (D-Link DSL-G604T) using both WLAN and LAN cards.

If anyone can help it would be much appreciated

Cheers

Rich


I meant to add that when I installed Ubuntu it took 20-30 min to get past the Set up Apt-Repositories section (I am assuming this is because it could not resolve any of the addresses)
