i am not wrong, on almost the same timeframe as X 4.3 was released, so i seriously doubt that it is incompatible, or at least that early incompatibilities have not been fixed since. So either it should run with 4.1 as present in woody, or go all the way and work with a backport of the 4.3 packages. Not that it is all that important, since we will have a sarge release soon now :))) Friendly, Sven Luther -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
