I have those exact lines in my sources.list, and still when I do (after apt-get update of course): apt-get install sawfish-gnome2 or apt-get install gdm2 or apt-get install rep-gtk-gnome2 or ... I get: E: Couldn't find package ... I rather suspect that the package names in the summary don't reflect the actual package names (which are different). How do I find out the correct package name, i.e. package names that I can feed to apt-get? Felix.
