Did anyone notice that after installing the new LXDE and Bonsai the default is two repos? I did a search and didn't find it.

I don't really understand what you're asking, but as far as I know the default in most PCLinuxOS installs would be two repos: one normal mirror for normal updates, and then the megagames one for the gaming crowd.

To keep up with the forum discussion I try and install all the releases and when I tried lxde 2011.06 I can't recall seeing 2 repo's, but then again I didn't look.

Can't recall having the megagames repo as a second repo selection - always one in mine.

I never noticed it before. I'll go back to the Sandbox now. ???

I don't have it selected either. But the question is: are alex's two repos both mirrors of  http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/pclinuxos/pclinuxos/apt/? In that case something is seriously wrong with his install. But if the second repository is http://ftp.vim.org/ibiblio/distributions/pclinuxos/megagames/apt/, then everything is all right. (If he's not a gamer he could untick the megagames repo anyway.)

Only one repo.
One megagames repo.


I check in 2 places - Synaptic and /etc/apt/sources.list - before I create the ISOs to be certain. After checking other things, I check again to be double sure.

As Neal has said:

And I have seen this on several installs.
