The following screenshots are of my current Software Sources settings:

If the missing key is: 40976EAF437D05B5 and the keyserver is the ubuntu.com

gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 40976EAF437D05B5

Output at here:

gpg: requesting key 437D05B5 from hkp server keyserver.ubuntu.com

Adding:

gpg --export --armor 40976EAF437D05B5 | sudo apt-key add -

and the Software Sources Authentication tab has it.

Thanks so much for your most helpful advice. I feel a lot more comfortable now with this topic.

Here's my piece of advice: Don't get old, you won't like it!!!
