Hi all, I recently installed a base potato dist, changed my sources.list to unstable and did a dist-upgrade wich went well. I then tried to apt-get install xserver-xfree86 (4.0.2) but I can't get it to work. It seems to die due to a debconf dependancy and debconf will not install. Here is the output of apt-get install debconf:

Anyone have a helpfull hint? -J. Davis Network Engineer, Groupserve Inc.
