Hi!
I recently reinstalled debian stable on my box, but I would like to run
some packages from testing. But after the reinstall I can't install
anything from the testing repository, I get messages of dependencies
that can't be met for everything. I have searched google and the man
pages for apt-* and dpkg for a clue but I havent found anything. Does
anyone now what's going on on or where I should look for a solution?

In http://www.debian.org/doc you have the APT HOWTO and there is is
esplained how to merge different repositories in a Debian box.
Yes I know, I have read it. The problem is I'm following the
instructions in that document, and installing packages from testing used
to work without a hitch before my reinstall with the same settings as
I have now.
Odd. Please paste here your /etc/apt/sources.list, /etc/apt/preferences,
and the commands which you have troubles with and so we would see if we
could help you.
This is my /etc/apt/sources.list
# the main Debian packages.
