Doesn't seem likely to me because the kernel packages don't depend on much. > and a new testing version of XFree 3.2. 3.2 isn't _very_ new, is it? Did you install it as a deb package? > How should I figure out thise things? I suggest to use aptitude instead. It can e. g. show you what a given package depends on (press d) and which packages depend on it (r). After updating the package list, i always put all packages on hold (=) so that nothing is changed until I want it. You can also press g once to see what aptitude would do in this situation. If you agree, press g again, if not, q. If you still have problems, describe them in more detail.
