apt and Dapper Drake beta2

[Alexander Thomas]

hello everybody,

finally i got myself a new laptop and of course i was very anxious to
see if the latest kubuntu would run. so first of all i installed Dapper
Drake beta2 (aka flight6?!) - and apart from some problems with QTParted
it all worked very fine!

there is just a tiny little thing: where have all the packages gone? in
adept there are rarely a few - even after enabling all repositories.
searching for apache2 for example returns a few libapache2-mods and
that's it. no php, no mysql no nothing.

do i have to add certain repositories manually (that's no problem, just
tell me).

by the way: this time i would really like to avoid installing things
like the JVM or Acroread manually. are there non-free repos, too? where
can i find them?

thank you very much in advance.

alex
