I should have commented on this earlier.  As I recall that OS is
just a stripped-down Debian Linux.  Once you set up a few things you
can snag packages from the normal Debian places instead of the
for-fee Linspire site, including full development environments,
Xastir binaries, what-have-you.  I suspect the Debian guys know all
about this.  I'm just repeating what I heard third-hand.
