Rep:
It's great having people's sources.list here. Very helpful for finding where to get different applications. The main Debian repositories are mirrors that netselect-apt determined to be the fastest, of which I have one activated. I use Etch.
Code:
# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux testing _Etch_ - Official Snapshot i386 Binary-1 (20060717)]/ etch contrib main
# the main Debian packages.
deb http://debian.mirrors.tds.net/debian/ testing main contrib non-free
# deb http://ftp.uwsg.indiana.edu/linux/debian/ testing main contrib non-free
# Uncomment the deb-src line if you want 'apt-get source'
# to work with most packages.
# regular Etch source:
deb-src http://debian.mirrors.tds.net/debian/ testing main contrib non-free
# deb-src http://ftp.uwsg.indiana.edu/linux/debian/ testing main contrib non-free
# uncommenting the following line will enable security updates
# deb http://security.debian.org/ stable/updates main contrib
deb http://security.debian.org/ testing/updates main contrib non-free
# multimedia
deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org etch main
# opera
# deb http://deb.opera.com/opera/ etch non-free
# tovid
deb http://packages.kirya.net/debian/ unstable main contrib non-free
deb-src http://packages.kirya.net/debian/ unstable main contrib non-free
# Official site for latest version of skype.
deb http://download.skype.com/linux/repos/debian/ stable non-free

I tried using that source list and recieved the following error...is there a quick resolution?
Code:
Reading package lists... Done

W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems
I tried using that source list and recieved the following error...is there a quick resolution? You need the gpg keys for both repos.

You can check self-made packages integrity thanks to my gpg key (fingerprint: 97A0 69D9 A150 687E 599F F168 EEFB 43B2 FBAB B737). To use this key with secure-apt, do as root:
gpg --keyserver wwwkeys.eu.pgp.net --recv-keys FBABB737
gpg --export -a FBABB737 | apt-key add -

The repository might be no longer available or could not be contacted because of network problems. If available an older version of the failed index will be used. Otherwise the repository will be ignored. Check your network connection and the correct writing of the repository address in the preferences.

If you get a key error, copy and paste this
gpg --keyserver wwwkeys.eu.pgp.net --recv-keys<key from apt-get update>
hit enter, then copy and paste this
apt-key add /root/.gnupg/pubring.gpg
hit enter again
Then apt-get update again
now it will work
