I wish RMS was as concerned about free documentation as he is about free
software.
Could you elaborate a bit on that? What's the problem with the GNU
_Free_ Documentation License?

There is no Xfree config file anywhere in the system that I can tell.
When I install X, it tells me that it hasn't found the files, so it
won't update them. The problem is that they're just not being created.

I personally use Unstable. Don't be afraid of the name--"unstable"
refers to the package list itself, in that it changes frequently with
the addition and removal of packages. The software itself is stable, for
the most part. I have only had a few problems in the year or so I've
been using Unsta
lution for this?

My suggestion? If being able to use "su" without a password gives you
the heebie-jeebies (as well it should), then be far more restrictive in
what you allow in /etc/sudoers. After all, if you're just going to allow
complete access with "sudo", you might as well just use "su".

h more information would have been a good idea, I
believe the original poster was referring to the Home button on the
keyboard. Still, the ambiguity of the Home button could have used some
clarification. Not to mention, we don't know what shell the guy is
using, or how it is acting unexpectedly.
If the system is connected to the internet, you can change your apt
source to a Debian server, rather than the CDs. This also has the
benefit of giving you the most updated packages in the release.

Problems so far:
/bin/install -o user does the trick, but if you call it on a directory
that already exists, it has its owner changed to user.
/bin/mkdir has no way of specifying the owner, and I'm NOT going to
allow every user to do a `sudo chown` for obvious reasons.
