GAAAAAH!!!!!!!!!! WHO MESSED UP 8.10??????? I install 8.10 hoping for a nice refresh, but instead I'm met with a horrible decision on the package management team to REMOVE SCREENS AND GRAPHICS!!!! Seriously, WTF! Not every monitor/graphics chip autodetects properly, we already determined that with 8.04. There's no reason to eliminate SaG just because most people are autodetected. Now those of us who were stuck using it to override the FAULTY autodetection are stuck...completely! Where can I get a .deb of SaG to fix my stupid computer?

GAH! It makes me mad when they eliminate perfectly useful applications for no apparent reason. This was a dumb move. Get Screens and Graphics back into the repos or get the autodetection routine to detect my 1600x1200 monitor as what is, not some pathetic 800x600 unusable resolution.
