For FlatPanel DVI support and perhaps other advantages, I would like to upgrade my P4 machine with a GeForce 3 Ti 200 card and a Planar dual-input monitor to XFree86 version 4.2.99.902 or 4.3 when it comes out.
Can I do this without breaking Debian X packages? I really screwed up my system once before, when it was new. I guess that was because I let the new X overwrite too many configuration files, but I am not sure. I ended up reinstalling everything. The installation script does offer options for what to overwrite. But I am not sure which questions to answer "n" to. How can I upgrade, breaking as little as possible? Also, is this a real danger, or pilot error? If it is a real danger, why? What does Debian have to do when taking a new version of XFree86 and bringing it in?
