I haven't set up a digiboard, but I remember reading up on how to do it a couple years back - I think it was in the documentation for the module in the 2.2.x kernel. The absence of response wasn't the point of my paragraph there - I know that various questions don't get answered. Probably a third or more of my questions don't get answered, because I'm looking for information on matters that others don't have experience with, or don't necessarily care about. I don't worry about this as I know that this is a peer support environment - it isn't mandated with the duty of solving all problems that arise on any aspect of Debian software, but is a useful resource if it can help. It can't help if people don't ask, or nobody else has had experience with the problem. Kai Olsen hadn't asked. A side note, Debian, at most, only can be implied to have any hint of moral responsibility for supporting Debian specific matters - adjustments that they make to packages, apt, dpkg, debiandoc, make-kpkg and other items they have developed from scratch as part of Debian, and installation and management problems with .debs, and their relative currency. Any other support that arises is gravy.
