EeePC Xandros Added Repositories

Friday, August 17th, 2007

Add the following lines to your /etc/apt/sources.list

deb http://xnv4.xandros.com/xs2.0/upkg-srv2 etch main contrib non-free
deb http://dccamirror.xandros.com/dccri/ dccri-3.0 main
deb http://www.geekconnection.org xandros4 main

To protect your default install, you must activate pinning so that your main distribution packages don’t get overwritten. Which could possibly cause stability issues.

Add following lines to /etc/apt/preferences (if it does not exist, create it).

Package: *
Pin: origin update.eeepc.asus.com
Pin-Priority: 950

Package: *
Pin: origin xnv4.xandros.com
Pin-Priority: 900

Package: *
Pin: origin dccamirror.xandros.com
Pin-Priority: 850

Package: *
Pin: origin www.geekconnection.org
Pin-Priority: 800

You can then use apt-get to install additional software.
