Generally I find that it's the upgrade process that's occasionally unstable, rather than the system itself. (The glibc upgrade was an exception, but even that wasn't *too* bad.) >The main problem of Potato (and Woody) : XFree 4.0.1 is not here (I own a >GeFroce so I need it).

Use /usr/local if you're compiling things yourself, and then you're guaranteed that Debian won't touch it. Of course, nothing's likely to end up in /usr/XF40 anyway, but it just feels a little cleaner. -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
