There's a lot of backports already maintained by existing DDs and DMs. Check out <http://backports.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=instructions>. Just add one line to your sources.list and then (aptitude install hplip/lenny-backports) should do it. It's currently an unofficial service, but I think Debian wants to do something like it as an official service during the lifetime of Squeeze or Squeeze+1 and future releases. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. bss@iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/ \_/
