Greetings all!


Hello! Hope you wont rant to much about the post title... I just want to greet all debian users out there, I am now one of you ;D!!!
Installation went pretty smooth, I used the guide submitted on lq a some time ago: http://www.osnews.com/story.php?news_id=2016.

I now have a pretty trim system...
I do have quite a few problems which I intend to solve, wont ask about them just yet but they involve (this is sorta asking but... ):

sound
gpu (had to yank out my shiny gf4 ti4280 and replace with an old tnt2... )
keyboard (using an old wonderful ibm-keyboard, wrong language)
getting "nescessary" things (the nvidia driver install wanted ld, cant remember what it does though?)
setting up my O so shiny MX500 *patt* which I know hot to setup, just used a "standard" mouse during install!!

Everthing worked fine in rh 7.3, so ive got the dirty work left... but as I said, youll know when I really need help!

Cheers, Klod
