Hi. About the only thing to consider is to make sure you upgrade when security fixes are released for packages on your system. Since you appear to be using a speakup kernel, you don't need to worry about upgrades. The same will be true if you decide to build your own kernel. Either subscribe to debian-security-announce so you see the announcements for security fixes, or remember to run apt-get update&&apt-get -u dist-upgrade on a regular basis. This assumes you have the line for security.debian.org in your sources.list and it is uncommented. My line looks like deb http://security.debian.org/ sarge/updates main non-free contrib Hope this helps.
