OK, thanks. That's a bunch of "local slang" I don't understand I'm
afraid - I'm not dim, and I've been hacking since I was about 8 years
old, and using Debian for a good few years now, followed by Ubuntu.
However, nowhere in Adept Manager can I see a mention of "universe" or
"gutsy-updates". Calling it a "choice" is a bit extreme, I don't
recall making a choice about "gutsy-updates" ever!

I have Security updates enabled, recommended updates seems to be
"grey" - what does that mean? And proposed and unsupported updates are
cleared.

I realise you are not "tech support", but I'd like to understand what
I did wrong!

Cheers,
Martin
