I update the OS to the lastest version. Since I'm not too knowledgable about backing up apps and I only have a few installed, just planned to re-install them after the update. When I go to Application Manager and select "Browse installable applications" I get a pop-up that says "Refresh package list". I select Yes and after a short download I get the message "Unable to refresh list. Last refreshed list is shown". I get the same message when I try to re-install apps from Maemo.

Thanks for any help.

one of your repositories is not working.

menu - Tools - Log
might show you which one.

You can Disable that repository for now to get the list to complete refreshing.

Look under installing applications, it has a very good walk through.

Big Thanks! The problem was with the openbossa.indt.org.br . I've disabled it and the list refreshes.

glad to hear it

I know this is an old thread but I have trouble with this one too! I'm trying to install lxdoom but struggling. Can anyone point me to another repository?

yes, Extras http://wiki.maemo.org/Extras#To_enable_Extras_repository.2C_just_open_th is_link_on_your_tablet.
