Greetings all from Montana, USA!

I have a desktop install of Xandros 2.0, which is a
distribution based on Debian. The only line in the
/etc/apt/sources.list file is:

deb http://xnv2.xandros.com/2.0/pkg xandros2.0-xn main contrib non-free

There are several packages I would like to install,
but are not able to be located by this limites sources.list
file.

My issue, though, is that I have added lines to this file
before, but was led to believe that just adding new
entries to this file sort of willy nilly can cause problems:
components written over causing some other apps
to break, etc.

I need a little advice, or direction, on how I can expand
this file to make more packages available, safely, if that
is possible.

Thanks much!
