Anyone know what the problem could be please?
Which one(s) are failing to update?

You can ignore that - the Mozilla repository public key isn't made available (you can probably install it manually with GPG if you want though). That doesn't stop anything from working though.

I cannot view anything to install via fapman the error message i get is when i select update catalogs or install applications.

When i go to application manager and check the repositories all are ok. When i check them via fapman all is ok also.

Not sure if the following sugestion has been made...

would it be possible to add some kind of visible metrics,
for example:
- time taken in each repository
- size of syncronization for each repository
- possibility to temporaly while using a certain connections not to syncronize/update certain large repositories but allow installation of apps already in cache, this would be good for those with limited bandwith

What's shown in the log after you get the error?

I had, as i remember a problem very similar to this one.
Try xTerminal using the command "apt-get install -f" and post please the complete result here.

Can someone please tell me why does FAM update the entire Catalog like everyday?
It has to download almost 12MB of data daily and here in South-Africa that is a bit expensive!
I am almost sure that the entire catalog changes daily?
Yesterday i saw a new update of FileBox, so i updated the Catalog and it downloaded 11.6MB and thats fine but now i saw an update of SMSCON and i needed to update because that ONE update isn't there but then it downloaded 11.6MB AGAIN

I'm just wondering why is it like that?

You can deactivate the auto-update of the catalogs.
If that is not useful, deactivate some of the repositories.
I fear that there is no other possibility to avoid that your FapMan fetches this amount of data.

Catalogs change all the time. You can disable automatic download via options and manually update as you want.

If you are short on bandwidth, space out downloads or disable some catalogs as needed.

Catalogs work like that. The system supports diffs but maemo repos don't serve diffs as far as I can tell.

Even on a good link it takes forever. They are rather large.
