I recently did this to one of my systems: 1. Edit /etc/apt/sources.list to change instances of "potato" or "stable" to "woody" or "testing". 2. apt-get update. 3. apt-get dist-upgrade. You might not get all the desired packages. I had to manually install xserver-xfree86. You may also have to set the symbolic link for /etc/X11/X (ln -s /usr/bin/X11/XFree86 /etc/X11/X). Bob
