Thanks to you both. I am sorry that your efforts were not rewarded. Is there a simple reason why the "commercial distros" are able to do this ? Maybe they are using non-GPL software that we would not wish to see in Debian.
Is the problem only with Woody ? How will other versions of Debian cope with this ?
