Well, audio works great, except installing just about anything with aptitude nukes pulseaudio.

I tried getting blackbox back on and it did this:

Re: Easy Debian Fremantle Beta Testing

Thanks for the time numbers! This is confirming something to me -- sometimes the decompressing goes quickly, other times it goes very very very slowly. We need to learn why!!

I wonder if this is also related to the different speeds for OpenOffice?

aechelon: you're finding my apt-get oops.

Here's how to fix the "install bug"

As root in Debian, edit (leafpad is my favorite) /etc/apt/sources.list and take out the # at the beginning of the "squeeze" line, the third from the top. Save the file.

Code:

apt-get update

apt-get install --no-install-recommends smbclient samba-common

Edit /etc/apt/sources.list again and put the # bac in front of the third line. Do another apt-get update and you're fixed.
