With that you have a basic TDE working desktop.

I have just come across this W: Failed to fetch http://ppa.quickbuild.pearsoncomputing.net/slavek-banko/dists/jessie/main-r… 404 Not Found Is there a repository with R14 up to date and a public key I can use instead? On 19 September 2014 17:00, Tony Wolfs &lt;tony.wolfs(a)gmail.com&gt; wrote:

Slavek thanks for the advice. Can you post links to the other R14 repositories for me please. I've looked at the nightly builds and everything >appears to be version 13 not R14. Also how do I get your public key, or any public key, for R14 so Live Build will actually download the >packages.
