    I'm trying to change the download server in Software & Updates using "select best server" but afterwards I get an error message saying "failed to download repository information". How do I fix this? Thank you.

    Try cleaning up your apt-cache and running any updates

    Code (Text):
    sudo apt-get clean
    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get upgrade
