  • They are already added if you did not remove them.

  • You would also need to determine the right country/region, to match existing entries in /etc/apt/sources.list.

In your /etc/apt/sources.list file it should look something like this. (Note your mirror will differ depending where you are in the world. (https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archivemirrors))

billy@MYBOX:/etc/apt# cat sources.list deb http://mirrors.us.kernel.org/ubuntu/ trusty main restricted universe multiverse

To add ppa's: billy@MYBOX:/etc/apt$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:someppa/ppa

then update repros: billy@MYBOX:/etc/apt$ sudo apt-get update
