Hi, Debian Squeeze is Debian 6.0 Stable. I doubt you can use the installer provided on this disk image to install ubuntu or vinux. I think the debian installer will only install debian stable, testing or sid (unstable). To install ubuntu you need a ubuntu installer ISO etc. Vinux provides their own disk images for installation, live cds etc. But installing ubuntu for later converting it to Vinux is possible as I understand. The vinux project provides scripts to "convert" vanilla ubuntu into vinux. ________________________________________ From: speakup-bounces@braille.uwo.ca [speakup-bounces@braille.uwo.ca] on behalf of Glenn [GlennErvin@cableone.net] Sent: Thursday, January 26, 2012 07:00 To: Speakup is a screen review system for Linux.

I have only dealt with the command line side of wireless setup slightly, so I do not have a full working knowlege of these tools, but you may want to search the manpages for iwconfig and iwlist using the man command. Here are the brief descriptions for these two utilities which are displayed at the top of the manpages for them: iwconfig - configure a wireless network interface iwlist - Get more detailed wireless information from a wireless interface The ip command could probably do the trick as well, but I am completely unfamiliar with it. ip - show / manipulate routing, devices, policy routing and tunnels I hope that this will help to get you on your way. I'm sorry I cannot be of any further help right now. Take care.

I doubt that grml is using the same script as debian. The grml developers were talking about it on the grml list. Sound didn't work on the release candidate and it sounded to me like they did something on their own to fix it. They had to unmute Master, Front, and PCM and set volume. But if they just borrowed a script from debian, I don't think they'd have had to discuss how to do that.

I just remember that I had seen a script in grml that was very close to what we have in Debian. > They had to unmute Master, Front, and PCM and set volume. The Debian script already unmutes these.
