because etch is archived. You should really use a more recent version of
Debian. See http://www.debian.org/releases/ for details.

If you really need some ancient packages from etch add the following to
your /etc/apt/sources.list

deb http://archive.debian.org/debian etch main

Etch was archived as announced in
http://www.debian.org/News/2010/20100522

Cheers,
Martin
