For my part, to get my wi-fi connection working, I have to type as root :
In addition, I had to copy /lib/firmware/* from OS2008 to /lib/firmware of debian.
Code:

Thank you! I bet it's the firmware thing that's getting me.
I actually knew about the usb0 thing, as the Zaurus has the same issue (having usb0 up stops dhclient from working on wlan0).

I have an Xmodmap. Where is the preferred place to put it? Just copy and paste in into the wiki?

I figured out the CLI question: Just do a
and you're set.
Code:
killall Xomap

Still searching for that elusive error message *grin*

Ok, we now have wlan
ifup during boot. Doesn't work, I had previously copied the firmware in.
ifup --force wlan0... and I got it to connect ... without wep or wpa....
Anyone know how to make the browser stop with the incessant pop-ups when you are trying to type in the location bar.... reeeeeeeaaaaaallly annoying.
Additional ... compositing works.... at least the shadow part so far.... this is gonna be fun!

Can't tell I'm having fun (3 posts in a row!)
Found a "bug" that might help in figuring out the fb0 problem, might not.
May:/home/james# /etc/init.d/x-server stop
/etc/init.d/x-server: line 44: /root/debs/fb_update/fb_update_mode: No such file or directory
Yes .... it's going to be a long and hopefully enjoyable weekend.

Copy the debs folder from /home/user to /root.
Anybody know how to make my bluetooth mouse work? Has anybody tried? I'll post details later if nobody cares to post a how-to (on Debian).
PS- I'm a n00b with Bluetooth

I just use iwconfig to connect to my router, though, I don't have any encryption set up on my wlan >_>
