Quoting Rodrigo Alexandre <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: olá rodrigo,
i'm running debian amd64 sid and very happy to do that, but have to say you'll lost a considerable amount of time to configure it....beeing brasilian you'd better join estudiolivre.org list, which is a linux-group dedicated to multimedia and offers tips, helps and good manuals. ciao!
