For some values of "can", yes. Alien can convert a .rpm to a .deb,

comply with the F

The 4.
i have a successful debian install on my iMac...which alone is extremely
cool.
congrats
have tried both woody & potato with anXious. xf86config doesn't seem to
work.
Neither of these worked on my imac dv, so don't feel bad.
i got an RPM of Xautoconfig from the YellowDog dist, but >rpm/alien
This is what I use on my iMac DV with XFree86 4.0.3. You may not want
the short monitor timeout, but I like it to turn off quickly when I'm
logged out.
Also, it's designed to work with Linux i386 keycodes, so you may need
to adjust for that.
Finally, your PCI device may be different.
