Thanks Robert,

It's nice to know there's an alternative, but the instructions look overwhelming and I'm not going to install the XFree86 at this time.

It'd be nice to have a Known Issues page on the forum or Wiki.  It looks like many of you were already aware of the NumLock issue.

I repeat it is not a kown issue with DSL.

I am expected to host every known issue with each projects software used in DSL? That would be a daunting task. I am sure not every nuance has even been discovered.

I don't mind if a question is raised or if a bug is found and reported. When I have control over such, and can reproduce it, I will fix it.

But when there is such bold proclaims made with no semblance of humility it does bode well for anyone nor makes one even willing to respond.

For me, a neophite Linux user, DSL is the sum of all of its parts.

I don't expect anyone to take on the burden of fixing everything that comes up, but I know it's in the project's best interest to inform its audience about all known issues.

ha..ha......in big, bold print....you're kidding, right? Nice way to discourage anybody from developing DSL.  I'm waiting for someone to complain about their SATA drive
