In network-admin you can see all the wireless networks
in area, and it will auto-config them, but only for
WiFi. It doesn't support Bluetooth. There are seperate
applications for Bluetooth in Gnome :)

Hi,
I did find the network admin, but I'm looking for
something likeknetworkmanager that will show all the
wireless networks in the areaand auto-config the
selected network.
Same goes for bluetooth devices.....

You can find this application in Gnome menus as well.

You'reright about merging debian sources into Ubuntu -
I misread somethingvery late last night.
I did find something that really tickles my fancy -
elive - a Debiandistro using Enlightenment. I had
played around with 'e' a long timeago, and liked what
I saw. For those on the list not in the
know,enlightenment (or just e) was the original
theme-able, customisabledo-what-you-want-with-it
desktop manager.
A question for Debian users - How do you select which
wireless networkto use? I can't find anything like
'NetworkManager'?

Stable Debian is just that, pretty much unchanging
for usually about 2 years at a time. So no, new
device support goes against the stable mantra. I
usually compile my own kernels and run a Debian
stable base on my servers (and tv box actually), so I
upgrade the kernel when I need to for new hardware
support. As for Ubuntu, not quite sure where you get
your info from, but it merges and updates Debian
sourced packages incredibly regularly. This ensures
currency of packages in addition to picking up all the
security related fixes in a timely manner. Brad
