I realized after sending off my original post, that I might have been a little abrupt, and missed the thought of adding the sources.list I have, this is the "proposed alteration" of the file:

Code:
# See sources.list(5) for more information, especialy
# Remember that you can only use http, ftp or file URIs
# CDROMs are managed through the apt-cdrom tool.
