debian developers would use unstable but I have just
upgraded to testing as I would like the latest applications that have
some notion of stability. ie. 2 weeks in unstable without major
problems is good enough for me.

Have you tried "apt-cache show "?
eg. "apt-cache show apt" or "apt-cache showpkg apt"

I thought netenv was used for different profiles (eg. home, office, other).

My machine boots at home without a network connection, though it does
take a lot longer to boot due to DHCP timeouts.
I'm using an Apple G3 PowerBook with the builtin ethernet connection.

Are you using devfs ???
I had to modify /etc/devfs/perms (or something like that) to get a user
to access the serial ports via minicom.

You could try looking at CIPE. It implements a VPN over UDP. Go the
CIPE website to find out more. It uses UDP rather than TCP because you
can get some really ugly things happening if you tunnel TCP within TCP.
Basically timeout/resend issues at both layers.

very useful indeed. Having said that, I am a big Debian
Linux fan and it is much faster that the Windows/Cygwin combo. It's
horses for courses. If most of your apps are unix based then Linux is
the way to go, if not then Windows/Cygwin may be suitable.

That should be perfectly straightforward... but while a floppy has
1457664 bytes on it, rescue.bin is 1474560 bytes, so won't fit! The
rescue.bin file on http:///images-1.20/ will fit on a standard
floopy, but how does this differ from the /images-1.44/ version?
Thanks.

Try the debian-powerpc lists. They might be able to help you too since
an Apple Airport is in use. I've used a PowerBook with debian and had
link speeds of 1 and 2 Mbps with Airport & Airport BaseStation (at least
thats what iwconfig showed).

top without the
cdrw/dvdrom inserted, to have it light (2.8 lbs) to
carry. What would be the best way to manage the
modules for this intermittent use?
Use "modprobe" to load the modules when you want.
Thanks for any suggestions.
My pleasure. Hope this helps.

Would using a USB moue help any ?
USB is plug and play and is detected dynamically on connection and
disconnection. Maybe you could run a script when the USB mouse is
connected/disconnected ???
Cheers,
Brendan Simon.
