stupid knoppix/debian question

[C M Reinehr]

I had to refresh my memory by taking a quick look at the sources.list file 
from Knoppix 3.2 and it looks as if it's pretty complete. The mirrors 
included are the "official" Debian mirrors, but there are, probably, over 
a hundred other mirrors worldwide. Check out: http://www.debian.org/mirror/

The security mirrors are, perhaps, the most important mirrors to include 
in your sources.list. Then, the standard debian mirrors. After that, it's 
a matter of including mirrors for applications for which you have a 
specific interest, which are not included in the standard mirrors, i.e.,
    Java: deb ftp://ftp.tux.org/pub/java/debian testing main non-free

Hope this helps. I'm just learning my way around apt & dpkg, myself.

Cheers!
