Actually, DrakConf doesn't give me that option. It asks me for the
resolution I want, but never presents me with an option to switch to 3.3.6 or
4.0.1.
In any case, I picked the XFree86 as my example mainly because it's at the
very end of the steps in Live Update. If one wanted to use it to switch from
3.3.6 to 4.0.1 or visa versa, they would first have to go through *all* of
the prior steps, including package selection. It would be nice to be able to
skip directly to a desired step.
