[ale] potato->woody, but now XF86Setup, etc....gone, huh ?

[Mazukna, Thomas]

Good Morning,

congrats on successful upgrade :)

in regards to XF86Setup in woody it never worked for me right.
try XF86config or was it xf86config..... it is pain in the 
but gets the job done better.

also install aptitude. Its a cool util to search through available
packages. Install kernel-package and latest kernel source.

As for enabling ieee1394... you just upgraded to woody, but your 
kernel is still the same that came with potato.

www.debianplanet.com has a nice quick howto for kernel-package
and how to build a custom kernel.

Tomas

Good Morning !

Just upgraded.........

	apt-get -u dist-upgrade

and rebooted but XF86Setup & Co. is gone.

How should this [and more, if you've been through this] be regenerated ?

Incidentally, being a debian novice, I was hoping that upgrading would
enable ieee1394 [Firewire] capability. But I don't see anything in dmesg
that indicates detection. Any ideas on this as well ?

Appreciatively,

Courtney
