progeny debian from woody ?

[godot]

I'm running debian woody and I really want the hardware detection capabilities of progeny? Can I upgrade to progeny from woody or is there a hardware detection package for debian in development?

There is info on their website about going from potato to progeny.... I'm not sure about woody though.




Upgrading from Debian 2.2 (potato)

Add a line to the top of the /etc/apt/sources.list file:

deb http://archive.progeny.com/progeny newton main contrib non-free

Run the following commands:

# apt-get update

# apt-get -f dist-upgrade

# apt-get install debconf

# apt-get install progeny-potato-upgrade

Install the progeny-standard-system package (recommended):

# apt-get install progeny-standard-system

Remove the progeny-potato-upgrade package:

# dpkg --remove progeny-potato-upgrade

Reboot your system (recommended).
