I know I've seen a few comments about X11amp before, but most of the suggestions
were to upgrade to 2.2. I tried installing the .deb from unstable, and had to
upgrade a few other packages before it would work, but this caused many, many
conflicts in my system, according to dselect. Everything seemed to work fine,
otherwise. UNTIL, I tried to install Star Office. This insisted on upgrading my
lib's, all though the README's indicated the Debian 2.1 had the right lib's.
After this, my entire system was trashed. I had to re-initialise my / and /usr
partitions and re-install from scratch. I don't want to try that again any time
soon. Is there any way to install/compile X11amp to run on Debian 2.1 without
upgrading the system? As it seems that the freeze for 2.2 is still in the
distant future, I would like to have X11amp, but not at the cost of going to
unstable. I am still too new to linux to deal with the problems of unstable.
Cheers,
John Gay
