I have lenny running quite nicely now and find it quite comfortable. I had trouble getting the nvidia module running with x but that is solved. A simple but hard to find/understand solution that is explained better here than I can explain it. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=420177 In a nutshell you need to get the installer from the nvidia website and copy nvidia_drv.so into /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers. Lenny's xorg.conf also is missing a "Modules" section. I renamed my xorg.conf and recreated it with nvidia-xconfig and all seems to be well. I'm running the same kernel and nvidia stuff as etch. I give Lenny two thumbs up.. :) It does seem to lag a bit behind where I thought it would be but sid is moving at breakneck speed, I suspect a lot of that stuff will be moving into lenny soon. Anyway, that's my $0.02.. :) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
