Whenever I install a new package thru aptitude, it always asks for me to insert the Debian Install CD. Any way I can get rid of this minor annoyance?

In Synaptic, Settings > Repositories. Then uncheck the boxes at the bottom of the window for Cdrom.

**EDIT*
ROFL Just saw what forum this was in...might not work for ya like that, I don't know. I've never used Debian :-P

su -
nano /etc/apt/sources.list
Then uncomment your cdrom lines.
# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 4.0 r1 _Etch_ - Official i386 CD Binary-1 20070819-11:52]/ etch contrib $


Here's my list just adapt the (htttp://ftp.....) server list to servers in your own country for optimal download speeds.
