This is always a moving target but you can run some tests to determine your best mirror. For example, using a box that runs linux mint (and I suspect something similar in Ubuntu), select:- Menu>Administration>Update Manager>Edit>Software sources>Linux Mint Software>Download From>Other>Select Best Server And as of now, on my Orange 3G connection, that turns out to be linux-mint.froonix.org in Germany. Hope this helps. -- Hari _______________________________________________ The Uganda Linux User Group: http://linux.or.ug Send messages to this mailing list by addressing e-mails to: [email protected] Mailing list archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Mailing list settings: http://kym.net/mailman/listinfo/lug To unsubscribe: http://kym.net/mailman/options/lug The Uganda LUG mailing list is generously hosted by INFOCOM: http://www.infocom.co.ug/ The above comments and data are owned by whoever posted them (including attachments if any).
