Hello,

I came back to Debian (testing/unstable) since a good year now, before that 
I had been using Ubuntu for about two years and yet before Debian since 
2003.

No doubt I prefer Debian. There's a but. Debian pretends to be the universal 
OS. Maybe it's true for everything, but multimedia.

Let alone why, I need a recent DVDStyler (2.x). For some reason, mostly 
philosophical, having DVDStyler 2.x work on Debian is a nightmare (if ever 
possible):

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=588104

My personal solution, after a few days of (useless) trials and errors, was 
to plug my external USB drive, boot Ubuntu in a kvm guest and use DVDStyler 
on that.

I stress it, I still prefer Debian, but in this case Ubuntu saved my day. 

So what's the point here? I don't know, I only meant to share my experience, 
maybe someone else will come up with a smart solution (smarter than booting 
an entire OS only to use DVDStyler).

BTW, I also tried DVDStyler for Windows under Wine, but it was crashing from 
time to time (nothing to be surprised about).
