I am having some problem putting your source in. My entire sources.list is at 
the bottom -1- but the ones I am concerned with are:

	deb http://us.debian.org unstable main contrib non-free
	deb http://mirrors.usc.edu unstable main contrib non-free
	
	deb http://us.debian.org unstable main contrib free
	deb http://mirrors.usc.edu unstable main contrib free

When I run update I get all sorts of errors meaning that I entered something 
wrong (deb, main,contrib, or non/free). How is it supposed to be?

(I commented out most of the original sources.list If you are going to look)
(I have also included th error message I received with 'apt-get update  -2- in 
case it matters.
