Hi I am currently running Ubuntu 15.04, when checking for updates I get the "Failed to download repository information"("Check internet connection") message, though when I press OK it allows to to install other updates, so my question is why do I get this error message and how can I fix it? Another issue I have is sometimes my system freezes(turns black & white) for a few seconds sometimes minutes pus I notice my PC is very slow sometimes, I also see this when i check my HDD "Disk is OK, 2 bad sectors (35° C / 95° F)".. Not sure if all these problems are related to the "failed to D/L Repository info" message, if not, any help/suggestions or info on any or all of these problems would be appreciated.. NOTE: I do have a lot of software installed like steam, wine, utorrent, etc.. and some web/software dev tools besides the partitions it says I’m only using close to 18% of my HDD.. Anyone please help if you need more info plz let me know.. oh btw I think I originally installed V.14.04 via bootable stick then upgraded to 15.04 through software updater.. if this helps.. Thanks in advanced.

This is the list of the recent ubuntu versions: Ubuntu 15.04 (Vivid Vervet) Ubuntu 14.10 (Utopic Unicorn) Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS (Trusty Tahr)
Please read the "Technical details about this PPA" here.
If you merge several repositories for several different Ubuntu version, then you really can ask to yourself: why I don't had a lot of problems before?
sudo apt-get update
in a terminal and copy-paste the error message at the end into your question? I suspect it's a broken source.ip addr show
