Thanks for the response. I actually just found out about the /etc/apt/sources.list.d directory so I was able to get the correct syntax and change the ume.list file appropriately.
You are correct: I mistyped the URL in the subject line of this email. I did get the "Could not resolve" error most likely because of the apt-cacher and http proxy that is used at my work. In other words, unless I go through the right proxies, they will give me problems resolving stuff. Thanks for the assistance and the details, Loïc.

I doubt you got a "Could not resolve" error (at least it resolves fine here, but the URL in your Subject is incorrect, it's archive.mobile not archive.module), however your line is incorrect. You want: http://archive.mobile.ubuntu.com/ubuntu um-hardy-security main restricted universe multiverse http://archive.mobile.ubuntu.com/ubuntu um-hardy-updates main restricted universe multiverse http://archive.mobile.ubuntu.com/ubuntu um-ppa-hardy main restricted universe multiverse -- Loïc Minier -- Ubuntu-mobile mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-mobile -- Ubuntu-mobile mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-mobile
