ROTFL... great way to put it. I always called it an afterthought. > So why didn't you just install openSUSE? Not my decision, it's for someone else. I view it as a good opportunity to see what the competition is up to. Other than the network config (impossible for beginners) I didn't have any major problems, though I'm still short on system maintenance. Oh yes, what's the gui tool for managing system services? > Anyway, I can recommend wicd for networking. Thanks! apt-get works, I'll see if I can get it to work. Nope. wicd daemon doesn't start, googling shows dbus must be restarted, but then wicd-client just crashes with a different error.
