problems with /etc/apt/sources.list
Linux Mint 14.1 64bit. For the better part of a week updates process and also synaptic repos have been giving error messages on startup and refresh. See below:
Code:

Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
Don't know what I might have done to cause this. My /etc/apt/sources.list is as follows:
Code:
deb http://packages.linuxmint.com/ nadia import main upstream backport
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ quantal main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ quantal-updates main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ quantal-security main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/ quantal partner
deb http://packages.medibuntu.org/ quantal free non-free
# deb http://archive.getdeb.net/ubuntu quantal-getdeb apps
# deb http://archive.getdeb.net/ubuntu quantal-getdeb games
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/webupd8team/java/ubuntu quantal main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/webupd8team/java/ubuntu quantal main
I thought it might have been the first line in sources.list, since it refers to nadia. So I vimmed in, commented that line and made a new one substituting "quantal" for "nadia". Restarted and got even more error messages. Then reverted back to the above list. The gui Mint repos listed in synaptic are main, upstream, imported and backported. The Other Software entries are Ubuntu 12.10 quantal quetzal non-free drivers, recommended updates, important security updates, canonical partners, http://packages.medibuntu.org/quantal, http://ppa/launchpad.net/webupd8team/java/ubuntu quantal (main) and http://ppa/launchpad.net/webupd8team/java/ubuntu quantal (main source code). Getting nowhere sorting this out. Updating refresh is taking about 60 seconds longer to finish with errors at present and updates sometimes seem to take and sometimes not.
