Daniel S. Barclay: > I have, but I would not have survived it without this mailing list. Okay, I purchased the InfoMagic set with Debian 1.1 only to find out that I need Debian 1.2 because my video card isn't supported in the 1.1 version of xbase. Now I read that installing 1.2 is a pain and on top of it I might need to get updates via ftp because the CD contains an unstable (?) version that requires updating. The thing is I *don't* have net access on the PC I wanna install Debian... Should I forget about Debian alltogether or will there ever exist a CD set containing a workable/stable/hassle-free version 1.2 ??? If I had access to a mirror site in order to fetch updates & patches, why would I even bother purchasing such a CD set in the first place ? This is starting to smell like a "gotcha" to me... :( -- Papy-EFB -------------------------------------------------------------------- Peg: "What are you thinking?"
