*lurking field down* ok. thank you for the offer, but i question why you'd put it in this way. it almost seems like you are trying to sell something. i'm not saying you are, please note i said 'seem'. WTH are ubuntu people posting here? this is like the umpteenth one i've seen here. *ubuntu is to debian as early mandrake is to old redhat, i.e., they started similar, then split. in this case however there is code-sharing, and even DDs working at ubuntu, but that's it. they are 2 different distros. the ubuntu people have their own lists and forums and such, go use them. before i get accused of being distro-intolerant, i'll say this now: i am not, i am simply saying that this isn't an ubuntu list, and ubuntu questions should go to an ubuntu list, and debian question to a debian list. it's like i would've sent a debian question to a fedora core list. *dude tired of seeing it on IRC, and now seeing in MLs* simon *lurking field up* -- "... being a Linux user is sort of like living in a house inhabited by a large family of carpenters and architects.
