Hallo out there,

this mail should only be something to encourage you to develop etch in
the beginner-friendly way as it is today. thank you therefore!
I like: - fitting installer to kernel
- easy way to upgrade kde ;-)
- hibernation
- gnome as main-desktop
I don't like:
- no easy overview in the console
for example: if there are many files in apt
there should be something like a
"list" in
alphabetical order


There are many many good things to like Debian...

Your Thomas Fischer

Thanks for giving comments on your experience with Debian.

You may not be aware of the 'aptitude' console-mode tool, installed by
default on Debian etch. As well as providing complete operation from
the command line, it also features an interactive full-terminal
interface with a browser for packages, one per line.
