CA>Based on a reply I read last night posted to you, it appears
CA>that you _did_ ask that CS email you instructions for modifying
CA>Linspire to use Debian repositories and not Linspire's.

CA>TW>>> WHICH incidently was Directly out of the Linspire FAQ'

CA>CA>> This is directly out of the Linspire FAQs as well:

CA>CA>> WARNING! -- both apt-get and synaptic can break a Linspire
CA>CA>> box since it might overwrite some Linspire specific stuff
CA>CA>> with standard Debians which might break some programs
CA>CA>> (apt-get works but it's not advised to be used by
CA>CA>> Linspire, Inc. staff).

CA>TW> I fully understand that. So I have had my Question Answered
CA>TW> and I am Happy.

CA>Yes and you have received the information to reconfigure
CA>Linspire to avoid paying for additional software. You have your
CA>"free lunch" to go with your free Linspire OS.

 Once again. I ASKED a question and it was Answered. And yes I did ask
 for the Instructions to Underrstrand the answer. And now I know it is
 posable BUT NOT Advisable.
Adn my Copy of Linspire was NOT Free. But that aside it was OFFERED but
I choce to but the CD instead of Downloading the "FREE" version.

SO what is YOUR Problem in all this.
