A good sources.list for Debian Testing:

As of playing mp3's, installing Picasa, Flash, Opera, Skype, and codecs, here's my sources.list:

(you need to open a terminal, log in as toot, edit (with Leafpad or Gedit) /etc/apt/sources.list)

1. The Skype repo doesn't seem to work; only the direct downloads work.

2. Replace wherever possible "testing" with "lenny".

The Skype repos works just fine, I have been using it since it came out. Keep it on "Stable "
