I don't know about the other repositories, but: deb http://mirror.ubuntulinux.nl edgy-seveas all
is a great repository, I've talked to Seveas online multiple times. The good thing about hosting in .nl, I believe is Seveas can host firmware blobs (bcm43xx, etc) in .deb form so users can easily "apt-get" install their firmware for their card, as compiling a firmware extractor, extracting firmware from the driver, and putting it in the correct location may be a bit too much for first time users. The hosting in .nl might possibly also account for the distrobution of proprietary codecs that are needed to make a fully functioning linux desktop.

Many of these add-ons seem to be present in the "Ultimate Ubuntu" DVD that I brought to the Bookstore InstallFest last Saturday. I didn't know that until yesterday, when I got around to reading the blurb on the Ultimate web site. < http://ubuntusoftware.info/ultimate/index.html > carl -- carl lowenstein marine physical lab u.c. san diego [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
