compatability question
To: Debian Project, I am setting up a server for counter-strike and i was wondering if this "debian" version is compatable with it. Most linux servers i see running counter-strike are redhat users. and also can i buy it on an install disk. Thanks for your time.
Apple Performa 6200 runs debian , HCL on penguinppc has erroneus information on it.

Please NOTE that only the 6214 has been tested, so there may be some small snags in some of the others. CAVEATS: * Sound is not supported yet. That's the next priority * SCSI is working, but rather slow. It's partially hardware at fault, and partially a lack of pseudo-DMA code. Oh well. It "mostly works." As always, your mileage may vary. * Serial is untested. It should work, but again, YMMV. You can download the kernel from ftp://ftp.mklinux.org/pub/kernels/wip/Mach_Kernel.PERFORMA.gz The README file is here, in the same directory. The MkLinux Team Mon Jul 31 2000 -- bye. .

Re: Should the Debian system distribution be entirely Free Software?
>> Are there going to be endless arguments about each of these points? > That question sounds like a self-fulfilling prophecy... No, any number of DDs voted for 'No further discussion' on debian lists through people, that fail to understand (and so possibly unknowingly, lie) that 'not DFSG free' does not mean bad and that the same DDs voted I think it should be Free Software plus whatever makes it a complete, working system, regardless of whether it's DFSG free software. I think it should be Free Software plus whatever is convenient for Debian's users, regardless of whether it's DFSG free software.
