I'll try them as soon as Etch is out. As Stable. ;)

If you do that and the problem is still there then it will be too late for etch to get a fix.

True. Maybe. But as of now, that's my main desktop at work, and I have no desire to spoil it. I simply need it, working. On the other hand, nobody has actually done much for the last 2.5 years to rectify the situation, and if Etch - once it is stable and I have the opportunity to upgrade - still has problems, we can go back and work on the solution for Etch; and hopefully release an update soon after.

Hé, everyone ! Anybody out there running Etch on a DELL Latitude D400 with a BIOS-version of A6 and above !!?:
1. Do you need some 855wrap to avoid a green screen ?
2. Just su, cd, Xorg -configure. Does the latter detect a mouse on /dev/input/mice or does it whine ?
