i've been wondering...why is newt named things like 'newt0.21' or
'newt0.25' instead of 'newt_0.21' or 'newt_0.25'?
looking at the answer to question 6.3 in the debian faq, it appears
that 'newt0.21' and 'newt0.25' are package names for different packages --
that is, '0.21' and '0.25' app
hi-
has anyone got debian installed and working on a thinkpad 770 ed?
