that hasn't been my experience, but i know what i'm doing well enough to fix things or to ask for help here if i find something i don't understand well enough. i got bit by some kind of lightdm transition or update and then before when system[-x] came along i had a failure during that which was not easy enough to solve as i did not have any exposure to system[-x] to that point. as i am here now and all is working ok i'm happy. debian does rock. :) thanks to the people who volunteer and do the work and answer questions and fix bugs. :) songbird
