Mint Could Not Download All Repository Indexes
So, I have the cd-version (32bit, no media or other stuff) version of Mint Lisa.
My internet works fine, I currently have DSL and not 100% sure of the speed... it's one of the 'middle' speeds. Not slow, but not $$$$ to surf the net and catch the occasional Youtube time wasting session. I'm pretty darned sure I have no network issues.
Anyways, the system update 'shield' near the clock has the green check mark ('everything is up to date') but when I try to refresh the list for new updates, I click on 'show individual files' and many of them say 'FAILED'.
After it goes through checking for updates, I get the following message...

Below that in the 'details box' for lack of a better term, it lists all of the updates that failed.
EDIT: now the 'updates shield' now has a red X in it... says 'could not refresh the list of packages'. Hmmm, maybe it finally figured out it wasn't working.
