Update Manager failure, ubuntu 11.04

Asked by Joshua Mackail-Johnstone

When i went to update my netbook, i got the following message;

W:GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net natty Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 6AF0E1940624A220, W:Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/elementaryart/ppa/ubuntu/dists/natty/main/binary-i386/Packages 404 Not Found

, E:Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

I've checked that i have an active internet connection, and i do. What do i do to fix this?

sudo apt-key adv --recv-key --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com 6AF0E1940624A220

Will sort it, if you'd added the PPA in the correct way, rather than ditting sources.list you wouldn't have this...

If you'd have ran:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tualatrix/ppa; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install ubuntu-tweak

You would get what you wanted....

I had put in what you had put, however it comes up with the following message when i try to update again;

W:Failed to fetch http://ppa.launchpad.net/elementaryart/ppa/ubuntu/dists/natty/main/binary-i386/Packages 404 Not Found
, E:Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

Shows the PPA doesn't support Natty. I suggest you remove it
