Basically, this page will be a list of links to every how-to that anyone in the crunchbang community discovers. Preferably each article will be added as its own page in the wiki.

From you!

If you have found a solution, add a link here. Submissions are welcome directly to the wiki page. Otherwise, you can post a link to your solution in the HOWTO Master-List sticky at the forums, and we will add it to the wiki for you.

“What's the point of having a wiki page? If I find a solution somewhere else, why post it to the wiki list?”

Because, as experience will show, it's A LOT EASIER to find an answer if they're all in one place. If you've run across a problem, someone else has had it too. Instead of every individual who has the same problem running around willy-nilly looking for answers among the tens of thousands of desperate pleas for help on the various forums scattered across the net… The first person to find a solution can provide the answer for everyone else to come.

“I have a problem that's not on the list!”

There's a lot of problems.

If you can't find a solution here, search the forums for an answer. If you still can't find an answer there, try searching the Ubuntu wiki or the Ubuntu Forums Debian Wiki or the Debian Forums. If you do find your answer, then please — post a message about your solution at the HOWTO Master-List Sticky so others can find the solution too! And finally, if you don't find your solution at any of those places, post a new thread at the forums.
