First thing you should do is make a backup copy of your current /etc/apt/sources.list by doing the following command:
sudo cp -a /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.old
Once you do that and perform the gpg commands at the bottom of this post as well, you'll want to immediately perform the following commands:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
If you want to update any kernels or major things like that then run the following command instead:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
Many of the repos listed below are commented out with a # at the beginning of the line. If you wish to use any of those repos, you need to remove the # and perform the following command immediately afterwards:
sudo apt-get update
Then open up your favorite editor as root user and copy/paste the following code into the editor and save the file as /etc/apt/sources.list An example of this would be to use the following command:
kdesu kwrite /etc/apt/sources.list
You can replace 'kwrite' with your favorite editor. If you want to do it with a CLI editor, then use this command:
sudo vi /etc/apt/sources.list
Copy and paste the information into the above mentioned file that you have open with your editor of choice:

And the gpg commands to import the keys are as follows:
You'll want to perform all of the following commands as root user:
gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv B0B7481B1F44842D && gpg --export --armor B0B7481B1F44842D | sudo apt-key add - gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv A506E6D4DD4D5088 && gpg --export --armor A506E6D4DD4D5088 | sudo apt-key add - gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv 49A120FD1135D466 && gpg --export --armor 49A120FD1135D466 | sudo apt-key add - gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv 4CF19C3233BAC1B3 && gpg --export --armor 4CF19C3233BAC1B3 | sudo apt-key add - gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv 07DC563D1F41B907 && gpg --export --armor 07DC563D1F41B907 | sudo apt-key add - gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv 31A5F97FED8A569E && gpg --export --armor 31A5F97FED8A569E | sudo apt-key add - gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv A278DF5EE8BDA4E3 && gpg --export --armor A278DF5EE8BDA4E3 | sudo apt-key add - gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv F653CB3098D3F7A7 && gpg --export --armor F653CB3098D3F7A7 | sudo apt-key add - gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv 580E2519969F3F57 && gpg --export --armor 580E2519969F3F57 | sudo apt-key add - wget http://seerofsouls.com/keys/hawkwind.asc sudo apt-key add hawkwind.asc wget http://seerofsouls.com/keys/philip.asc sudo apt-key add philip.asc
