[aklug] Ubuntu issues

I have an acquaintance using Ubuntu 9.10, so he tells me.
He tells me he is having difficulty updating the box using something
called the "download manager". Apparently it causes everything to freeze
when he's attempting updates and he ends up power cycling his laptop as
everything is unresponsive.

I am not an Ubuntu or Debian user and am unfamiliar with the supplied
tools. Would anybody have some pointers I can pass on?

I've been trying to encourage him to show up at a Friday night session.
So far he's a no-show.
