If you want the source code for any package on Xandros Networks that is open source add the following line to Xandros Networks -> Edit -> Applications Sources -> Add

For V3.
deb-src ftp://ftp2.xandros.com/src xandros3.0-src main
deb-src ftp://ftp2.xandros.com/src xandros3.0.2-src main

For V4.
deb-src ftp://ftp2.xandros.com/src xandros4.0-src main

Once you have done this you will need to install the sources from an Administrator console (Applications -> System -> Administrator Tools -> Console (Administrator) )
Run the following comands
apt-get update
apt-get source (package name)
So to get the source for xorg you would run
apt-get update
apt-get source xorg

umm, great but maybe u need a debian archive repo for compilation issues!

visit the debian archive, and added this lines to sources.list:

deb http://archive.debian.org/debian/ sarge main contrib non-free
deb http://archive.debian.org/backports.org/ sarge main contrib non-free
deb http://archive.debian.org/debian-security/ sarge main
deb http://archive.debian.org/debian-volatile/ sarge main

and run command: apt-get update
