You can not judge the "relative calm" of testing verses Sid based on this time period. The xorg thing is a major change. I have found Sid to be more usable than testing over the past several years --- but there are times that I do not update until the dust clears. This is one of those times. Ubuntu's development branch has broken the xserver daily for weeks on end. I have fixed x countless times as I help test. Who knew it was this much trouble to change x-servers? I did not. They are trying to make it more "modular" to make it better in the long run. I guess we will like that some day way in the future. Good luck. -- Regards, Joe -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
