## Step 1 - Add the backports repository
-Ubuntu Hardy users need to activate the hardy-backports repository to use our
-`cp210x-module-dkms` package. Ubuntu Karmic users can skip this step. Note,
-you can also activate hardy-backports from the GUI.
+Ubuntu Hardy users need to activate the hardy-backports repository, as our
+`cp210x-module-dkms` package requires a newer `dkms` than is available
+otherwise. Ubuntu Karmic users can skip this step. You can also activate
+hardy-backports from the GUI.
sudo cp /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.bak
cat <<+EOF+ | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu hardy-backports main restricted universe multiverse
+EOF+

# TMI repository
## Step 2 - Adding the TMI package key
-When you issued `apt-get update` above, you saw a key warning. We solve this
-by installing a package from the TMI repository that contains our packaging
-key.
+When you issued `apt-get update` above, you saw a key warning. Resolve future
+key related warning messages by installing `tmi-keyring`.
sudo apt-get install --yes --allow-unauthenticated tmi-keyring
and look for the following two lines, ensuring your output matches that below:
pub 1024D/E9BE0373 2009-12-08
- uid TMI Packages <pkgs@titaniummirror.com>
+ uid TMI Packages <EMAILADDR>
+
+The email address above is 'com dot titaniummirror at pkgs', in reverse.
## Step 3 - Install packages
You can now install packages from the TMI repository. For example:
-* Install our [[cp210x]] driver: `sudo apt-get install cp210x-module-dkms`
-
* Install our [[tinyos]] development suite: `sudo apt-get install tinyos`
