I can't get any of the typical packages I installed with Edgy, others include gaim, konqueror, k3b and others. Haven't tried the CD, but I did try Synaptics and it didn't get anything. I'm more accustomed to apt-get because I've used that on Debian quite a bit. The machine is back at the office, so I can't show ou the sources.list file today, but as I set it does have universe and multiverse enabled.
