I don't get much impression from them.
Hello, folks, have you tried our stuff? Does it work?

George, are you still with us? Are you preparing another big happy surprise?

Now, can you propose something that makes my network card work?

OK, so I see you're using
	xserver-tinyx-fbdev_4.1.0-3_arm.deb
can you post your Xconfig file?
