Need help, I face the below problem everytime,

whenever I try apt-get update, I get the below message, even the app catalouge in HAM and FAM does not updates community-thumb repos..

Am I doing anything wrong

Are you completely sure you have internet connectivity in the N900? Aside from obvious things like making sure wifi or mobile internet are actually connected, what output does

Code:

ping6 2a01:4f8:100:1388::2

produce? (You have to run it as root. It won't let you ping if you're not.)

Below is the output I get..

and I am posting this post through N900 itself

Code:

~ $ sudo gainroot
Root shell enabled


BusyBox v1.10.2 (Debian 3:1.10.2.legal-1osso31+0cssu0) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

/home/user # ping6 2a01:4f8:100:1388::2
PING 2a01:4f8:100:1388::2 (2a01:4f8:100:1388::2): 56 data bytes
ping6: sendto: Network is unreachable

Well, that's really odd, because your N900 is trying to use that IP to reach the Community-thumb repository - and the errors it's getting, both from apt-get and from ping, are the generic 'network unreachable', and that would seem to be a networking problem. But if you're able to connect to the internet overall, then I have no clue. *Shrug* Perhaps your N900 is unable to use IPv6, but is able to connect to IPv4 addresses? Does output of:
ping www.google.com
differ from
ping6 ipv6.google.com
?

I think you are right

Code:

/home/user # ping6 ipv6.google.com     
PING ipv6.google.com (2404:6800:4003:801::1010): 56 data bytes
ping6: sendto: Network is unreachable
/home/user #

So, how to resolve it?

I removed the ipv6 (AAAA) dns entry for maemo.merlin1991.at.
Now only the A entry (188.40.39.11) exists which should make it possible for you to update.

I never thought a n900 would prefer ipv6 over ipv4. Interestingly though the ipv6 entry has been there ever since community-thumb exists.

I have the same problem here and I tried
ping6 2a01:4f8:100:1388::2

and also tried:
ping6 ipv6.google.com

and both of them end with:
ping6: can't create raw socket: Address family not supported by protocol

I also tried to ping with : ping www.google.com and It worked.
my internet is working fine as well !

any help please ?

I installed the Kernel power yesterday

ping6: sendto: Network is unreachable

and the same thing ... I can't update the community ssu : 21.2011.38-1Tmaemo5.1 (11.09.2012) !
