I had problems with the Thomson tablet with installing some applications and was getting this error message. A little bit of searching and I found out that this was a network issue. Clearing the dalvik cache and Google Play cache is commonly suggested but that doesn't help. What helped in my case was to go to Settings and Data Usage, then turn off Mobile Phone Data. This fixed the install problem.

Ubuntu 13.10 and Wifi
Seems like there's an issue where wifi keeps dropping on my new Ubuntu 13.10. So, I found this article that seemed to help. These are the commands:
sudo modprobe -rv wl
sudo apt-get remove --purge bcmwl-kernel-source
sudo modprobe -v brcmsmac

Upgrading to Ubuntu 13.10
Keeping this brief, I ran into an error with upgrading Ubuntu. "Could not calculate the upgrade" or some other mumbo jumbo. So I look into just what the hell is happening on this upgrade and came across with this askubuntu article. Basically, it told me to look at the logs which was very helpful.
$ grep Broken /var/log/dist-upgrade/apt.log
This showed me that the custom xorg-xserver-video-intel package I installed for fglrx is causing the breakage. I did apt-get remove to delete the package and re-ran the upgrade. It seems to be pushing through now.
