I was not even able to `rmmod` the dvb-usb-af9015 kernel module, the
rmmod process just hung itself up.
step-by-step tutorial what I did for my PAN approach, with a few
(german) screenshots, tested on Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid:
-* Since my laptop was running on Ubuntu Lucid, there was already a
- recent Blueman version in the Ubuntu repos available. On older
- systems, you may want to add the [Blueman Launchpad PPA][5].
-
- $ sudo apt-add-repository ppa:blueman/ppa # only necessary on pre-lucid systems
- $ sudo aptitude update
- $ sudo aptitude install blueman
-
-* Note that this also removes possibly installed `gnome-bluetooth`
- packages since Blueman is an adequate replacement for the GNOME
- Bluetooth UI.
-
-* After the installation has finished, I had to enable the NMPANSupport
- plugin for NetworkManager 0.8 by right-clicking on the Blueman icon in
- the GNOME notification area and selecting “Plugins”. For older
- NetworkManager versions, there is also a plugin for NetworkManager
- 0.7, called NMIntegration.
-
- <div class="gallery">
- [[!img blueman-menu.png alt="Blueman context menu"]]
- [[!img blueman-plugins.png alt="Blueman plugin page"]]
- </div>
-
-* Then I activated tethering on my phone (“Programs” → “Internet
- Sharing” on my Windows Mobile 6.1, but YMMV). Apparently this was
- neccesary with my model, because without tethering enabled I could not
- get a Bluetooth PAN connection in the next step.

-
-* I paired the phone and my laptop via Bluetooth, and created a PAN
- (Personal Area Network) by connecting to the “Network Access Point”
- service on the phone. In Blueman, all you have to do after pairing is
- right-click on the device and select “Connect To: Network Access
- Point”. This creates a new network device `bnep0` which is
- automagically configured through NetworkManager (using [stateless
- address autoconfiguration][6]).

There is yet a better approach instead, which doesn’t need the SSHd
config to be edited at all:
-1. login to the user on the remote machine
-2. create `/home/.ecryptfs/$USER/.ssh` and put your `authorized_hosts` there
-3. symlink your encrypted version there:
+1. login to the user on the remote machine

- $ ln -s /home/.ecryptfs/$USER/.ssh/authorized_hosts ~/.ssh/authorized_hosts
+ $ ln -s /home/.ecryptfs/$USER/.ssh/authorized_hosts ~/.ssh/authorized_hosts
-4. symlink your unencrypted version there (as above, **make sure** no
- process wants to write to your home directory in the meantime):

The paths are for Ubuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) and later. On other
systems, you might want to replace `/home/.ecryptfs` with

-.-), there are a few things that were annoying me or are still doing
it:
-* kaffeine-1.0~pre is not even as useful as 0.8.7 from jaunty: While
- staying in touch with the main KDE (4) line, the developers seemed to
- completely remove the Playback -> Video menu, so it is not possible
- anymore to toggle deinterlacing, or any other video filter, which is
- very annoying for DVB-T. I filed a [bug report][1] on that.
- Futhermore, my DVB-T channels were lost, so I had to rescan them.
-
-* The notifications displayed by notify-osd somehow have wandered from
- the upper right edge towards the middle right. This seems to be fixed
- now, as pointed out in the [bug report][2], but somehow this fix never
- got onto my system, though the changelog of notify-osd says so…
- Additionally, the notifications for received messages in Pidgin do not
- hide anymore if I actually read the messages, they persist until their
- default timeout has elapsed. And they even show up now when my IM
- status is on “Do not Disturb” – this was not the case (just as I
- expected it) in jaunty.
-
-* Icons in GTK menus are now hidden by default, which seemed very
- unfamiliar to me, since I always used them as an orientation guide,
- especcially in the Firefox search plugin menu. You can show them again
- in the System -> Preferences -> Appearance applet on the Interface tab
- by selecting “Show icons in menus”.
-
-* GDM is no longer custumizable through themes. It just doesn’t support
- it, as it seems to be a [complete rewrite][3]. IMHO just another
- Unmature Software Thing.

- **Edit:** I just found out that it is also not able to start GDM in
- Xnest, as I usually did for testing:
-
- $ gdmflexiserver --xnest
- ** (gdmflexiserver:5916): WARNING **: Not yet implemented
-
-* And finally, my customized GNOME window theme (based on Clearlooks)
- was broken :-( I am very confident that the color of selected text was
- not the same color in the title bar, but now both seem to be the same
- color. This is really bad, as for the title bar, I used to have a
- darker shade of orange than for selected text. OK, changing to another
- theme may be simple, but until now, I haven’t found anything I like
- best.

## How to Reproduce It
For the curious people reading here, here is what I actually did:
-1. `wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/z/zsnes/zsnes_1.510-2.2ubuntu3_i386.deb`
-2. `ar x zsnes_1.510-2.2ubuntu3_i386.deb`
-3. `tar xzf data.tar.gz`
-4. Edit `usr/share/applications/zsnes.desktop` and added `-ad sdl` to the
- `Exec:` field, otherwise it would just segfault on the first run:
-
- Exec=zsnes -ad sdl
-
-5. Edit `usr/share/doc/zsnes/changelog.Debian.gz` and added a new
- changelog entry for the version (just copy one of the previous
- entries and adapt it)
-6. `tar xzf control.tar.gz`
-7. Edit the `control` file, changed the `Version:` and `Architecture:`
- field to `amd64`, added the `ia32-libs` dependency, and set myself as
- maintainer:
