I upgraded from kde 3.5.9 to kde 3.5.10. In order to do that i checked "unsupported updates" (advice from here --> http://dot.kde.org/1219751598/1219780288/1219783458/1219784312/1219785876/1219786011/SoftwareSources.jpeg).
My problem is that now the "Edit Software Sources" button is inactive, so if i can't change any settings. Adept installer asks for my root password every time it starts so it's not a problem of administrative rights.
thanks

You can edit (in root mode) the file /etc/apt/sources.list and put a "#" in front of the line that you want to disable. It should be kinda obvious which one it is, when you're looking at the open file and the source lines. :)
