Works fine here with btdownloadcurses (3.4.2-5). I don't use a router
because my testing box gives me better performance with two NICs and a
switch.

Problem with login/logout freezes (solved myself) ... On my older machine I had set up 2 user accounts, one for everyday usage and another for more serious work which I want to protect from loss in case of internet security problems. ... This worked well, though creating the new account revealed a few problems with Debian I wouldn't have known about otherwise: using the "Cursor" font in Sarge causes 'nautilus' to crash; and the 'esd' sound daemon randomly fails to shut down when logging out, preventing the next user from being able to use sound. ... I don't know what part of the system is failing -- my guess is that it is a problem with the proprietary video driver -- but because I'm using a tainted kernel there is no point in reporting this as a bug using the BTS. ...
