I finally did it! I ditched that awful orange brown Gnome desktop from Ubuntu and have gone down the road of Debian (Thanks to LXF mag for the disc!) Enjoying it, I must say. Pity I can't seem to get my stupid SiS card to play audio (malconfigured I expect, and entirely my fault - hooray!) I've started to remember why I started using Linux in the first place: If I want something to behave/look different - I change it. I also realise now (after much gnashing of teeth) how much I relied on a lot of bloatware in the orange distro. Debian is just way quicker on my weedy old Inspiron 1000 lappy. Oh, and yes.. I have discovered that the advice I didn't take many moons ago about a separate /home partition was a really silly thing to ignore. Live and learn! Anyhoo, loving Lenny so much I just had to tell you all! -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/linux_adm/list-faq.html
