No, I could just run Etch if I was all that worried. I do restrict myself to just "apt-get upgrade" rather than loose little old gedit these days. I could always use kedit to check my spelling I guess, but it would be a hoot to see gedit and abiword fixed in a big ugrade ahead of oppenoffice and kedit. Just once. I am not really complaining, as running Sid is all about breaking things once in a while. The development branch of Ubuntu has broken X every other day for months --- while Sid has played well with his toys so far. -- Regards, Joe -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
