depends on the app, at THIS point in time i dont think there is much to worry about as the 2 versions just started to go their seperate ways a couple months ago, i use a few packages from unstable without difficulty(though i dont use GNOME i use afterstep) if there are problems you can always remove/purge the unstable ones and go back to stable(if they are available in stable, in my case the packages im using from unstable are not in stable) nate -- ::: ICQ: 75132336 http://www.aphroland.org/ http://www.linuxpowered.net/ [EMAIL PROTECTED]
