Specifically how would a container access a graphics display ? 1) Running VV via 'ssh -X'. Straightforward, and requires doing something else with the sound. 2) Running a VNC server inside the container. Unsuitable for games IMO, but straightforward. 3) Running a separate X server inside the container. Requires allowing the container to use at least /dev/input/*, /dev/dri/*, and, of course, a tty (see [1] as an example). Leaves the sound question open too.

Jessie is completely stable, according to my experience. You will be better off just doing a fresh install, after backing up personal files. I was thinking the exact same thing, that Jessie has proved stable *for me*. That's a disclaimer intended to mean everyone's own experience can and will vary.. Jessie's in fact *so stable* for me, I'm actually bored. I debootstrapped Sid couple hours ago and am just running through my inbox before attempting to set Sid up tonight. After years of doing these kinds of things every possible way wrong, my most likely path now in a situation like this would be to go the route of installing the whole new newer release (upgrade) if that is the only place the desired package is found. With installing a whole new unified release, everything is intended to work together rather than, for example, us users trying to shove one of Jessie's new square pegs into a potentially non-existent old round hole in Wheezy. And I would be doing the above *KNOWING* Jessie is still labeled as *testing* which means not guaranteed stable even though many of us are finding it works well right now.

Glibc 2.15 not found?
I'm trying to run the game VV on my system but whenever I try and launch it I get the following error: ./x86/vv.x86: /lib/i386-linux-gnu/i686/cmov/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.15' not found (required by ./x86/libSDL2-2.0.so.0) I tried looking for glibc 2.15 in the software repository but could find no such package.

I understand. Well, you don't have much choices. Force-install a newer glibc in the base system will break your entire system, so here are the options: * install another version of Debian containing the required glibc version * install another distro if you don't want to use unstable softwares. if you want to stay on a debian-like and are a novice, can I suggest you Ubuntu or LinuxMint? * build your glibc by hand (see LFS pages[0], they can be helpful) but install files (not configuration) in, say, /opt/glibc-version. Then to use you'll need to play with some environment variables. At least you know how to run a program from command line, so env variables are just the next step :-) * download the newer, packaged, version of glibc from unstable or testing Debian, extract it by hand and put files in a prefix, like before. Then use env vars an pray for it to work. [0] http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/development/chapter06/glibc.html signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
