I went ahead and did a Corel to slink upgrade. I added in the Debian slink lines to /etc/apt/sources.list and also a line to slink-proposed-updates. Then I used dselect to do an update, selected a few additional games for good measure, and installed everything. The system came up and seemed to work just fine. I didn't do anything extensive to it, but the only oddity I noticed was that the Debian menu wasn't buried into KDE like it normally is. This ought to be interesting, because as Corel establishes itself I'm sure we'll be dealing with more and more Corel users here in Debian-User... Regards, .
