Hi,
I want to make the page scroll speed in iceweasel 3 with my mousewheel
more responsive. It's way too slow now. I sit twiddling the wheel and
nothing happens.
Browsing the forums brings no solution.
Anyone have a suggestion?

Hi All,
Does anyone here have a idea what the eta is on Debian getting the
2.6.26 Kernel into unstable?
Regards

There has been a discussion about that this week on -release.
Search for :imminent 2.6.26 sid upload and 2.6.25-2 testing

I don't understand; .26 is not yet in Sid.

Hello!
How do I set the locale for a user to something other than the one set by
debconf in the locales package?
This should be the user's default in X sessions.
I was told that gdm has a feature for this but I'm using kdm.
Cheers!
