Re: [SOLVED]cannot download anything :o

Looks like that server is down.  Try another one (edit /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist)

Re: [SOLVED]cannot download anything :o

Just uncomment one line in the mirrorlist. I'm using ftp.nluug.nl right now without problems. Please report back.

Re: [SOLVED]cannot download anything :o

do pacman -Syy after changing mirror.
i'm sure that you didn't do pacman -Sy before trying to install that package


Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.
