Thanks a lot Scott. Lenny is much better. It also set my hardware more smarter than etch. I only need to manually set the wireless adaptor.
gobjc 4.3 is in lenny's list. looks cool. will see what's happen to my goal soon. I tried ubuntu 8.10 desktop, it not include dev sources by default. That give an empression that the desktop version of ubuntu is mainly not for gnustep developers. Scott Christley wrote: > > Hello Elim, > > Etch is old. My suggestion is to move to Lenny.
