Hi,
I had a problem with using a rt2500 based wireless card. The problem was
that it would not connect to the router without security enabled. I am
going to file a bug, but so not know what package to file it under,
rt2500-source or iwconfig. Can someone advise me?
Please copy me on reply as

Update:
Getting a little frustrated, I aptitude purged all my vim files. I then
re-installed 'vim vim-common vim-runtime'. I now have colour syntax
hi-lighting back.
I know it's not the proper way to fix things, but damn, I tried to do it
the right way.
Thanks again for the assistance !

Good points, but the people who don't or don't want to upgrade aren't just
people who are afraid to change. A friend who first introduced me to Debian
still uses Woody. He hasn't upgraded because he downloaded a lot of
