Hello - I'm not an expert, and I'm definitely running a different system, but encountered a similar problem: running Ubuntu 11.10, ran through the tutorials (http://ros.org/wiki/electric/Installation/Ubuntu) and when I ran the 'sudo apt-get install ros-electric-desktop-full' command I got the error:"E: Couldn't find package ros-electric-desktop-full". I ran 'sudo apt-get update' not once but three times. After running the update the third time in a row, it found the package. As I said, not sure it's the same problem but wanted to share in case it helps.
