Touchpad is extremely slow even when settings have been put to the fastest possible (touchpad is fine in Windows XP and Ubuntu (breezy 5.10), but makes the Debian fairly irritating to use. Also, at times display has exhibited very strange behaviour, appearing as if it has reverted to having very few colours, but looking at xdpyinfo (with some intel from a friend) did not display any weirdness, and display was fine after logging out and logging back in. Mildly irritating to me personally is also the fact that the login screen image changes randomly, but this might be considered a personal preference, and since it is configurable, it might not be considered a bug as such. I had to use etch because of the SATA drive, sarge did not recognize the computer having any HD. I'll be happy to answer any questions regarding the installation, since I have probably not managed to make everything entirely clear in this report. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.12-1-386 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
