When I did 'apt-get -u dist-upgrade' I noticed that task-x-window-system-core was maked as held back. After the upgrade I still had my v3.3.6 servers on the system. I did 'apt-get install task-x-window-system-core' and the final part of the new X install was carried out. After that everything ran fine. It looked like it needed a two stage upgrade. -- Phillip Deackes Using Storm Linux
