Hi.
How is the lifecycle of ``unstable''?

I'm a little wary that it might pose too many problems along the way.
The reason I think that is that my very first contact with Debian was

Hello all,
I was wondering if someone out there can tell me if there is a

The reason for this is because I tried to use the de4x5 module and it
would work.

Did you run 'apt-get update' first? If you have the correct sources in your

No familiarity here yet with framebuffer but for the vga/vesa stuff,

Hello,
I pulled down the newest star office suit. Would love to set up faxing, but
so far, all the help I found isn't helping at all. Is there a way to enable
faxing (at least sending a fax) with star office using debian potato?

I found http://www.littondale.freeserve.co.uk/LinuxAndFreeserve/News.html
very useful when I set it up recently. Mail me with any questions.

don't know how to change it on an installed system.
Thanks!
