Due to heavy rains my connection slowed down. Did this : Software sources–Ubuntu Software–Download from other–select best server. Tests done, server selected, reloaded.
The Problem : Update manager shows the same list of applications I have already installed / updated from my previous server.

This is not the sign of a good Operating System.
Do this and post your experiences here.
