Ok I have been looking for this for a while it is the ultimate list of repositories for the Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper Drake distro. It will give you so many program choices you wont know what to do. simply goto your terminal and type sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list (I chose gedit for this because im assuming it is the easiest for people try kate for kde, also nano,vi, and emacs should work) and then add this to the file

  # Treviño’s Ubuntu Dapper Sources list

       # If you get errors about missing keys, lookup the key in this file
       # and run these commands (replace KEY with the key number)

Just thought id share that it should be of help if you are new to the OS.

’s big Dapper sources list explains how to get lots of packages, but it also puts multiple unofficial repositories and foreign builds onto one system. Ubuntu 6.06 (Dapper) is long end‑of‑life, and running a mixed list against an EOL release is risky: old releases are served from Canonical’s archive for retired releases and not maintained in the same way as current mirrors. (help.ubuntu.com)

The failures described by (no web audio, USB mouse, inability to install ATI drivers) are exactly what happens when mismatched kernels, libraries or driver packages are pulled from incompatible repos. ’s blunt warning is on point: many third‑party or distro‑mismatched repos are the single most common cause of a seriously broken install. First triage step: boot a previously working kernel from GRUB (Advanced Options) and disable all non‑official sources before doing anything else. (askubuntu.com)

Practical short workflow (do these from a root shell or recovery mode; back up first):

sudo cp /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.bak
sudo mkdir -p /etc/apt/sources.list.d.disabled
sudo mv /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d.disabled/ 2>/dev/null || true
# point the system at the Ubuntu EOL archive for the distro codename (if staying on Dapper)
sudo sed -i 's|http://.*ubuntu.com/ubuntu|http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu|g' /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*.list
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get --fix-broken install
sudo dpkg --configure -a

After this, inspect /var/log/apt/history.log and /var/log/dpkg.log to see which packages were installed or upgraded and consider downgrading or removing offending packages. The official EOL upgrade docs and APT troubleshooting pages describe the old‑releases switch and the --fix-broken / dpkg --configure -a recovery steps. (help.ubuntu.com)

If that repair path fails, use a Live image, chroot to repair, or — often faster and safer — install a currently supported Ubuntu and restore data from backups. Repository search tools (as mentioned by ) can help find packages, but prioritize official archives and test changes in a VM before applying them to production. (askubuntu.com)

I was hoping you might be able to help....
I used your sources list to get cinelerra- soemwehere along the way, I have lost:
1. All internet-based sounds, including games, youtube and myspace
2. USB mouse
3. The ability to install ATI Proprietary drivers.

Any thoughts or ideas? (other than be more careful in the future.)

DO NOT USE THIS LIST!

This list should not be used. It is nearly gauranteed to seriously damage your installation. I was pointed to this list by a person who operates one of the sources on it and was shocked that it existed.

here you can find sources.list for Ubuntu, Linux Mint and Debian. There is also Repo-finder, a search engine for repository which search between ~10000 repository: www.sourceslist.eu
