I thought it was the policy on this list ... sorry for the annoyance. > The unnamed "desktop environment" in the debian-installer installs the > desktop environment that is the default for that CD. There are first CDs > for gnome, KDE and xfce, so all three of them are "default". Well, I installed debian by using the netboot image, which has no desktop environment on it. So this is why (again ...) I'm calling it "default". I have no "official" URL to back it up, but I thought it was "natural" to have gnome as default, as it is today the DE of most distros (beware, I'm a gnome user, so I may not have an objective POV). > > but I didn't think of it because I never owned (or saw anyone using > > debian on his PB) a backlit PowerBook. > > Mostly because I only really use it when I'm lying in bed in the dark. > Not completely sure if the usecases for that feature is much different > for other people, but I highly doubt that you (or others) would be able > to see me using that because of this. ;) Point taken :-) but what I meant by "not seen anyone" was rather not knowing anyone who used pbbutoonsd for his backlit PB, rather than actually seeing him.

Of course. Even if I seem to remember some very specific model with this feature, but it's not common at all.
