problem installing xcfe4

Hello,

I am having a problem installing xcfe4.

I have Ubuntu installed on the beagle (rev. C4) by following the
instructions located at http://elinux.org/BeagleBoardUbuntu

When I issue the command to install the full GUI :

sudo aptitude install xfce4 gdm xubuntu-gdm-theme xubuntu-artwork
xserver-xorg-video-omap3

I get:

Err http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ lucid/main libfuse2
2.8.1-1.1ubuntu2

connection failed

0% [Waiting for headers]

I am networked using USB OTG, I can ping, I have DNS servers located.

Please help, thanks in advance.

This is a network issue in your setup..

Double check your settings with this guide:

http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/USB_Networking

It's the best I've found for otg networking to date..

BTW. what is your upstream host for the beagle? win/linux?

Regards,

Thanks for the link. I will double check my network. It seems pretty
solid though.

My upstream host is a laptop running Ubuntu on a CD. I have a bridge
up and running.

Here is the output from an update command. Looks like I am
establishing a connection, yes?
