Playing encrypted DVDs need a special license, which as far as I know would need to paid for every copy. So we simply can't add that. > My second point why not provde a clear list of supported hardware? > The printer list is comprehensive and fine, so what about the Film > scanners , the flatbeds, and the webcams? Sorry again, but I fear we can't do much about that either. Creating such a list would need a huge amount of time, and we - as a volunteer project - just don't have the time for that, not even to think about the resources needed to test that through. However, you could use the Debian Live CDs to test, if your system is supported before installing it. That's not a perfect solution, but a quite good one. Best regards, Alexander PS: By the way: The debian-release mailing list is not very suitable for discussions like that. It would have been more proper on the debian-project mailing list. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
