Re: [debian-user] Warum sollte ich gerade Debian Linux kaufen?
Hello Viktor Rosenfeld,
Once you wrote about "Re: [debian-user] Warum sollte ich gerade Debian Linux kaufen?":
%I> BTW, I used to suggest SuSE to beginners. Not anymore.
I can only support this opinion - I used to use SuSE, now I've
upgraded to Debian and I ran into lots of trouble because of having
got used to the "SuSE-way"...

Even if I agree, that Debian needs support, the best choice for
Germany is IMHO www.liniso.de - they just burn the official images
and send them to you - Woody costs 25 DM there ;))
PS: Don't be confused through my quoting-style - it's coming from an
inofficial mutt-patch, which replaces %I with initials of the sender.
It should have been VR> in this case - The problem is now, that this
patch must be incorporated in my mutt-build - this is what I have not
yet done.
Anti-off-topic (I guess, money issues are not so ON-topic here): You
can see the "Written at " (Ooops, it must have been "on" ;) 1 bug
found...) line in my signature - it's using Russian symbols because
of LANG=ru_RU.KOI8-R setting in /etc/environment. Can I just insert
all the possible LC_* lines into this file, or are there any other
possibilities?
