There hasn't been a non-us repository in debian for quite some time. As such, I would simply remove that second line entirely. You may have better luck substituting ftp for http in your sources list lines for debian as well. > non-free > deb http://security.debian.org etch/updates main contrib non-free If you want things to succeed, I don't think you can have a 'non-free' line standing by itself like that; precede it with a '#' (comment). > deb-src http://http.us.debian.org/debian etch main contrib non-free > deb-src http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US etch/non-US main contrib > non-free Same comment applies - remove non-US. > if there isn't anything wrong with mirrors, does anyone have a good one? > iuri Generally, if you're not in the US, then change it to the mirror for your home country. There is a list of mirrors but I'm not familiar with them - or if some are markedly better in throughput than others and just as complete and updated (that helps as well). Back in the days when I was running Mandrake (aka Mandriva) I would tend to use either a norwegian or swedish mirror - those gave good throughput, as fast as my 1.5 mbps dsl link could handle. But I normally would do updates when I got home from work, which would be about 6-7PM Pacific time, and as such in the wee hours of the morning at the ftp site - so less traffic. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
