update - repositories

[R.L. Reingard]

hi Alain,
to me your sources.list looks a little messed up. some repos are double  
mentioned in the list ?!
for general updates you only need (default ones ??): hoary main  
restricted, hoary-updates main restricted and hoary-security main  
restricted.
so check how many downloads you get, if you only use them.
i personaly always disable other repositories, unless i do need to update  
stuff which i got from somewhere else. this has one reason: once i did had  
enabled some more repos and did all the available downloads, and guess  
what, my machine was not anymore running well.
regards,
René
