There seems to be a problem with the hwsetup deb file.
It does not work?! Even building it from scrach does
not work. You have to repack it from the 3.4 version
with dpkg-repack. I tried it and it worked.
Don't know what's wrong. 
Latetly there a quite a few problem (?) with the deb
files. For the hwsetup I just can't understand why it
does not work if it is the same version that's on 3.4
I also can't seem to find the captive-install deb and
the kernel 2.6.6 that is in 3.4. Wierd. 
Maybe Klaus can help us by telling us what's wrong.
Klaus?
