2.4 is in Sarge as well, but is currently pretty broken (i.e.
`gnome-core` is still version 1.4). It's possible to install it piecemeal,
however.

Greetings,
I've been having a strange problem with a machine running a combination
of woody and sid (mostly woody with some sid packages). Every morning,
around 06:00, the machine locks. X locks, I can't get a console with
control-alt-f1, I can't ssh in. I *can* ping the machine in question.
