Lots of conclusions can be drawn from anecdotal evidence but a proven aspect of troubleshooting is to rely only on factual evidence. The conclusions drawn from factual evidence may be be incorrect but at least there is a verifiable, repeatable framework to return to. Anecdotal evidence has a habit of morphing over time, which, amongst other things, makes it useless for figuring out anything. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
