Same here deviltox. Xandros is still the 2.4 kernel, I think. 2.5 introduces USB 2.0 support.

I have the Technology Preview that comes with Xandros version 1.0 when you buy it. It seems to be a pretty stock version of Debian 3--still with the 2.4 kernel, but with KDE 3.0. No real reason to install it.

I'm particularly pleased with the ease of hooking up to my Windows LAN and printer sharing, although I still have some issues with Windows LAN regarding the use (or not) of the IPX/SPX protocol. Largely due to my lack of understanding of WINS and/or lmhost files possibilities.
