一、添加某个软件的源
1、进入http://packages.ubuntu.com/ 其中，Distribution和版面都选any，然后点击搜索
2、根据系统选择不同的包
3、根据不同的CPU选择
4、把红框的内容添加到文件/etc/apt/source.list中
5、最后要执行sudo apt-get update以便sudo apt-get install xxx在更新源后能够执行。
另外也可以直接将包下载下来自己编译，在第3步的页面右侧你会看到如下：
二、更新所有源
1、备份当前的源列表
sudo cp /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.backup （备份下当前的源列表）
2、修改更新源
sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list （打开Ubuntu 12.04源列表文件）
3、把里面的列表替换成下面的列表
163源

教育网源
如果你是在校大学生，可以使用校园网/教育网，就是用教育网的资源吧，尤其是支持ipv6的，那更新速度就按兆算了。
