My apt directory contains an additional "lists" directory containing
package index lists for all configured repositories.
Maybe you could create it ("mkdir -p /var/lib/apt/lists/"), run "apt-get
update", "aptitude update" or whatever Maemos command for updating the
package lists from the repositories may be and see if that helps?

It looks like this /var/lib/apt/lists.new directory is a temporary directory that is created to replace /var/lib/apt/lists after refreshing the repos.

Re: Problem with app manager
Hi Nelson, Im away for the weekend so I can't try anything til Sunday. But I was pinging www.google.ie as a test at the beginning from the terminal and it was working (on wifi). If i find an open wifi this weekend i' ll try it too. If that works then maybe its just my AP, but I doubt it.

Re: Problem with app manager
Bernard, I've had some weirdness with the DHCP assignment of DNS servers. Can you try to do a dns lookup of say, www.google.com while on the wifi, just to see if failure to properly take on the DNS servers offered via DHCP is at the root of your issue ?

Perhaps proxy issues? You will get better feel for the problem by playing around with good old-fashioned apt - i.e. install rootsh from extras (using 3g), open terminal, sudo gainroot, "apt-get install gpodder" (or somesuch). -- Ville M.

Hi there, I'm glad someone else has this issue! I just picked up my new N900 from the office today, got home, did a backup, and started trying to install software. It hasn't happened yet :( I have tried via 3G connection and via WiFi, but installing via the app catalog does not work.

It wasn't the repositories. After one more time downloading images and reflashing, standard repos now work fine. But still havent got rid from random reboots.
