@pvsage which style you use?

I quite often have to use my uni's proxy to connect, and Chromium has quite a few issues because in #! there is no gnome or kde-esque network settings manager. Simply because of that, and because there is no good way to set Chromium to open links at the background, I vote Iceweasel

Thank you for the guide - I think it would benefit all if you post it in the Tips and Tricks section as well, but it was my belief that another (possibly final) release of squeeze-based #! would be nice and up-to-date from the get-go

Precisely

may be we can hope for one of the last squeeze-based #! releases or one could think with waldorf as the main point of emphasis, what we have is what we got?

To be honest I had such problems way back in the #! 9.04.01 days and just assumed they were still present now Now I tried the package from the repo and yep, it works

I'd assume the player is moc and have you been able to make it display cyrillic characters?

It is sufficiently easy to change, if someone dislikes the idea anyway On the other hand something I have noticed over the years that when it comes to theming, there is no great backward mobility - work-of-art themes of previous releases (the one from 9.04 and the previous statler one come to mind) are hard to obtain and I always wondered if it would be that bad if they are included in newer releases as part of the additional themes.

I think it would be cool - call it whatever you like I mean, I realise it is not the most practical thing to do in the long run, but still for the sake of experimentation.

PS: I meant greyscale, not monochrome (my grasp of english strikes again)

Interesting enough, I now reside in Scotland and I have actually decreased my whisky abuse. Nevertheless, Glenmorangie is a great treat.

I would argue that the biggest difference between #! and PCLinuxOs (as an example of small team distro) is the maintenance of separate repository, because here in Crunchbang we (the  community) and the sole developer can rely on the efforts of the huge Debian infrastructure to produce high-quality and tested packages, whereas in PCLinux, you have a much more isolationist project which since its "split" from Mandriva is doing everything on its own. It must be overwhelming - thus the slower pace of development. But we should note, in the two examples I've used - that packaging a huge project on its own in KDE and a quite more simplified one in openbox is also a factor.

I wouldn't want to point no fingers, but is it possible that the problem is in the grub package version in #!? I did not have such problems when using earlier #! builds, Debian Squeeze or MEPIS (also Squeeze based). As far as I know, it uses a custom version.
