I notisted my kde fonts were somewhat arcaic so I figured out I needed
anti-aliasing. The antialiasing-howto deb package had a doc that talked
about
xfs-xtt
but I found (with apt-cache) a xfstt They seem somewhat similar...
Any clue?

, I would like to know how:
a) Getting framebuffer to work with a debian kernel. (I've only seen
"home-made" kernels doing this)
b) Shut the fan down. I really like working at night with no noise..
Are you sure your hardware is ok? I'm having no lockups...
good luck!

Any advice from anyone who uses it's laptop to send mail from different

Yes. Upgrade to sid or testing version. Do not use framebuffer unless

Can you run glxgears? Do you actually see the gears? and you do have a
frame rate between 6000-9000?
I have my display modes set to "1400x105" "1280x1024" "1024x768".
Tuxracer works fine. (Btw, what color depth are you using? Try 16)
I almost bet your problem is not tux-races specific...

You just need to add the "testing" sources to your /etc/apt/apt.conf, and
then do the dist-upgrade.
Check your /etc/apt/apt.conf file
