How do I suscribe to this list? What are the packages needed to configure/detect a network (router)?
I just installed Debian Sarge on my laptop. My laptop was useless with window, it used to hung up every too often. Things look better with Sarge. Therefore, I concluded that Linux is definitively more stable than Windows and rescued my laptop. I am new to Debian. Some years ago I tride to install Potato but couldn't do it. I still have the CD's to reveange someday... Sarge is more user friendly in this sense. I use RedHat at work (as user only not administrator) and used to have Mandrake and SUSE (100% smooth installations) at home but I have the feeling that only Debian will remain trully Open Source in the future and it's worth to learn it, apt-get is exellent by the way. I was able to connect to the network once but then I got an IRQ-11 error and have not been able since then. I am trying to connect to a router via a LAN cable. The router is connected to the WAN. The Router seems designed for Windows but I could use it once. Unfortunately, Debian detected the network during the installation by itself so I have no clue how did it happen. I had to reinstall Sarge again to eliminate the IRQ11 error that was interfering with the boot process. However the new installation didn't recognize the network automatically!
