Squeeze is Debian testing and the next Debian stable release, some time this spring, I take it we want Squeeze to ship with FG-2.2. ..quickest way is swap Lenny for Sid in your /etc/apt/sources.list and do an 'aptitude update &&aptitude safe-upgrade &&aptitude full-upgrade' > (so I can buld FG debian liveboot images) after many years of > building FG on Suse distros. > > I found a few Debian funnies (to me), a complete new arrangment of X > for one, but understand different distros sometimes do things > differenty and I am feeling my way.

(Is that the right one for nvidea users?) ..another reason for Debian Sid, or Debian Squeeze, they add the nouveau X driver that the nvidea owners can use to verify Nvidea is doing the right things in X, FG, etc, X.org's nv can only do software rendering. > Also some oddies with unavailible dependancies for OSG. cairo, > poppler-glib, librsvg-, gtk+_2.0 and Gtkglext-x11-1.0, it seemd to > compile an install ok and osgview is functional.
