App Manager Catalogue Update Timed Out

[ianegerton]

Hi,

I recently got a N900 and am having some issues with the app manager.

When I try to connect to maemo extras catalogue to update I receive the following error in the logs:

http://repository.maemo.org/extras/dists/fremantle/Release.gpg Could not connect to repository.maemo.org:80 (193.120.121.147), connection timed out.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

I have since played around with it and have gotten it working by installing the repository from the maemo repository website. The only difference between the one I installed and the default one was the distribution field on the new one is blank and it now seems to work??

Sounds very odd - especially as the original error indicates that it couldn't even access the site. It's more likely that it was a transient issue - have you checked whether the default one is still not working?
