You can always pin a specific version in "/etc/apt/preferences".  According to 
the manual, if you specify a priority over 1000, then apt will downgrade:

http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-apt-get.en.html#s-pin

If you are going to be mixing stable and unstable or testing, you probably 
also want to take a look at:

http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-apt-get.en.html#s-default-version

-T

PS:  From what I could see on the Debian packages page, it looks like stable 
is running xfree...

Re: Xorg upgrade: 6.9.x to 7.0.x

With the same deb's exept xserver-xorg  7.0.20 total lock in my UP1100
alpha with  ATI Technologies Inc RV280 [Radeon 9200 PRO] AGP controller.

And I tested never version of ati/radeon driver and still the machine
locks up with some white blinking lines on the display.

Is there an easy way to downgrade to the Xorg from the stable distro.
I guess not :)

BTW, all the evidence I have so far suggests xorg 7.0 is completely broken

already doesn't work, I just would suggest not expecting too many miracles
from 7.0 just yet.


Here's one success story.  I just upgraded a couple of days ago, and
everything (include X) is still running fine...  : )
