I've never used SuSE too much (I could not stand how intrusive it seemed to my old fashioned ways), but I don't really understand what the quote above is all about. I find the Debian start up scripts pretty well put together. Maybe the fact that I've only used Slackware and Debian significantly in the last 10 years has set my expectations too low? ;-) Perhaps you should try them before you lose them? Could you be more specific about the problems? There is an alternate package: file-rc. Never used it though. Cheers!
