i did a sudo apt get updates but still turns the screen off, idk

Well that shows some type of hardware or low-level OS problem, which is out of my reach.

im guessing its the new kernel as the new gentoo/ubuntu doesnt work either, and dsl is just debian with older kernel, but cannont confirm such as i cant find an older version of debian to try as the mirrors just have the new lenny and if i click projects i can see the older ones but all their just like 1kb files that say a random number not an iso.. but now im poed lols already bought a wifi card for it off new egg got a full duplex netgear 108mbps rangemax wifi card for like $8 just poed cant use it for anything

What version of debian do you want?

pretty much any one that doesnt have errors and is pre 500 so anything like 300-400

4 Etch is what I use and it works fantastically!

What do you mean the "content" of the files?

That cant be, I am currently using etch right now and just had fluxbox on here like a week or two ago.
