I never noticed any myself, but I mostly just post here in this specific thread. Good thing you got rid of them.
And Debian is a strikeout. Rusty's Wifi chip requires non-free firmware blobs along with my cheapo USB Wifi dongle. I can't get the blobs without an active internet connection and I'm too lazy to hunt down the individual blobs. I don't have an ethernet cable long enough to run from the bedroom router.
Trying another distro instead, but rather than PCLinuxOS, I went for Mageia again. It's getting late so I won't be able to install it tonight but it is downloading right now.
