(i did it w/i the last couple of weeks on my deskbox; it was seamless! and it looks and feels wonderful! i would recommend upgrading--imho.) here's what i did: 1. i edited /etc/apt/sources.list by adding "deb http://http.debian.org potato main contrib non-free" at the end of the file. (no quotes.) 2. as root, i typed "apt-get update" 3. then i typed "apt-get dist-upgrade" that's it! it took a few hours on my 56k connect. (so i took a nap.) have fun! bentley taylor. // -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] < /dev/null
