Download was successful to tablet. Instillation failed because there are other packages that need to be downloaded and intalled as well. What these are I do not know.
The ubuntu version you downloaded would have been for the x86 architecture (used on most computers), whereas the Nokia n810 uses ARM. (different processor technologies require different programs). Also notice that there is an ubuntu version, and probably versions for debian, fedora etc, but none for maemo (sometimes different operating systems will require tweaks to the programs)
