http://plf.zarb.org/~nanardon/?minor=1

(the equivalent of checking some box on the page)

That gives Tex and Samba and Sambaldap and a few more.

If your favourites are missing, I am sure the page tells you how you can
get them added ...

Anyway, there is less need for this than for Debian. More than 50% of
the repositories are for backports from unstable or testing to stable,
backporting software which was already available in Mandrake 9.1. A lot
of the others contain software that are already better maintained in
Mandrake or PLF.

Instead of focusing on the number of repositories, tell us what software
you want to be able to urpmi ...
