We all have our likes and dislikes - but what here is specific to Debian?
gksu is desktop specific surely. And what has firmware to do with this????
No tdesu. But
tdesudo and gksu are both there. So I installed gksu.
But it didn't work. I.e., <gksu kwrite. in the launcher produced a
request for the root password - but entering the root password had no
effect. Nothing at all happened, and a check with ps showed that nothing
had been launched. I tried all three of the programs I normally want to
use this way, and nada. :-(
So I purged gksu.
17 packets installed, one was removed. So now |I have 16 orphaned
packages to remove. :-( Wne I have looked it up.

All of what you are writing here are just adding to the reasons why I don't
like Debian at all. At least Ubuntu adds some firmware pre-installed on top
of Debian and remove some disagreeable aspects of it. PCLinuxOS is so much
better!
As soon as TDE R14.0.1 will be out, I'll build the new release of my
remaster. This time it will have less clutter and a smaller ISO size.
Great. :-)) It is bit big to be a useful Live CD on older hardware at the
nmoment. I know - I have just tried to use it.
Have a great day!
