Debian :: Locate And Restore Apt Source List File?

Apr 10, 2009

I seem to have removed / moved / deleted my /etc/apt/source.list file and was wondering where or how can I locate them again on the web? Is there a place online that has the default repository listings for 'Etch' & 'Lenny'? I did not lose them on both but this is something I would like to know in case it ever happens to me. Seems like this would be something easily available on the web but I can't find it on Debian's site and or via Google.

Had ATI card on my old setup, so this is my first experience with nVidia and Linux. I follow [URL]... , but run into problem with module assistant.

"Fel" at the end is Swedish for "Error". I can't understand what to do to correct the error. When i look in Synaptic, it seems i have both gcc 4.4 and gcc 4.3. The gcc 4.3 states latest 4.3.4-6.

Aug 2, 2010

I'm rather new to Linux...especially Debian. I've been running Kubuntu for about 1 month now and I wanted to try out Debian as well. So I installed it on a laptop (Downloaded the 6 DVDs). Now, how do I add some repositories to Synaptic so I can update my software? Also, is there a list of repositories? So far, every time I want to install something I need to insert one of the DVDs.

Debian Configuration :: Jessie Amd64 / Held Pkg And Broken Synaptic?

Jan 30, 2016

I was using Synaptic to remove unwanted sound & audio programs...it seemed to take out other files that were non-related ?

(1) Now apt-get complains about a "Held Package" and doesn't tell me the pkg name.

(2) Synaptic is broken...error..E: The value 'stable-updates' is invalid for APT::Default-Release as such a release is not available in the sources

E: _cache->open() failed, please report.

stable-updates isn't even in my sources list. I've purged synaptic, and re-installed but remains broken. When you close error msg synaptic disappears ? Therefore can't use synaptic at all.

(3) apt-get says many packages that were available are no longer available...like one of the main repos has disappeared ?

(4) I put the same repos that are working for my brother who is running Debian Jessie also, but didn't improve the number of missing available packages.

deb [URL] ....

deb [URL] ....

How or why things have gone so wrong from just removing unwanted sound pkgs.

To recap problems...apt-get held pkg....broken synaptic....unavailable pkgs.

how to install Dropbox for Debian Squeeze from source.Please read everything before you begin. I prepared it as I installed Dropbox for my own system. Please Note: I use sudo, you may have to use root or 'su' from the command line. If you don't know the difference between sudo and su, then you shouldn't try this until you know. At the time I did this, the lastest dropbox version was 0.6.7.

Debian Configuration :: Synaptic Tapping - Left Side Of The Touchpad Is Not Enabled For Vertical Scrolling

Dec 2, 2010

just installed debian squeeze KDE after years of ubuntu and suse.. For some reason, after I finally got both scrolling and tapping to work, I have a weird weird touchpad through my xorg.conf: - tapping on a tab in chrome closes the tab.

- tapping in a text field pastes txt that is in the clipboard, each successive click keeps pasting the same thing

- the left side of the touchpad is not enabled for vertical scrolling (?), and for some reason the directions are inverted (move finger up to scroll webpage down)

- when having multiple windows open, tapping that window will highlight it, but the previously selected window stays overtop of the now selected windows. Using the actual left click button the windows change normally.

Ubuntu :: Malformed Line 59 In Source List Etc/apt/sources.list?

Sep 1, 2011

There is a problem with my source list (apparently) I'm running 11.04 if that helps.When I try to use apt-get install update for example, I get: "Malformed line 59 in source list etc/apt/sources.list"The same error occurs when trying to access synaptic package manager, it tells me there is a malformed line and the list of sources cannot be read.This error prevents me from apt-getting anything, updating and i suspect it is affecting the software center too.

Debian Configuration :: Apt Not Finding Source?

Feb 21, 2010

I just finished installing Debian 2.1 on a very old laptop for some light word processing and web browsing, and am trying to get apt working so I can use it and dselect to install packages. Whenever I run apt-get update as a first step, I get stuck at 0% with an eventual timeout (this also happens when running the update step of dselect).

I know that my network card (a Farallon EtherWave) is working because I can ping my local gateway and remote sites. In my sources.list, I have this line for the Debian archive for this release: deb [url]contrib main non-free

Can anyone think of why I can ping the archive successfully, but apt will not read it? Do I need to change some network configuration, or my source line?

Debian Configuration :: Installing The KVM From Source?

Jul 9, 2011

I have a fresh install of Debian Squeeze AMD64 which I'm trying to install KVM on. I have no idea what I'm doing so I figured someone on these forums might be able to explain it. I have already verified VT support and enabled it in the bios. I have googled and read about KVM installation but everything I can find is either confusing or doesn't work. Also I am trying to install it from source because I want to experiment with modifying it later.

Debian Configuration :: Cannot See Winbindd In Process List

Mar 2, 2011

I am trying to set up samba using AD to authenticate users. I did a clean install with the latest version of debian (need at least version 3 of samba for this to work). When I first installed winbind and ran "ps -ef | grep winbind", I could see about 4 instances of winbindd running. I set up kerberos and ran kinit and that ran fine, then tried changing my smb.conf file and restarting samba and winbind. Everything seems to appear normal when I restart the daemons, but when I run "ps -ef | grep winbind", I see nothing running.
