I first saw autodetection in LindowsOS (now Linspire) and Xandros, but it is now in Debian as well and seems to work well. I think the only thing I had to configure manually and did not get quite right because I did not write notes to myself after previous installs is getting my multi-card reader to work. It works, just not as well as it did in prior installations. 8) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
