While you make some good points, I think Uwe has a point too. In years of trying to get working configs, from about slink, through woody, sarge, sid and finally Ubuntu & Xorg, I've rarely got working configurations via hand editing the config file without enormous effort. A good gui tool would be a nice thing. > Sarge is quite actual, and will soon be 'stable' I'll believe _that_ when I see it.
