What do you mean by "won't work"? gnote crashes? gnote loses previous information? It isn't sufficient to define an issue as "won't work". And if applications change as they are updated and the programmer doesn't account for older versions and move information from the old locations to the new locations then a bugzilla needs to be filed. Applications such as T-Bird know how to do this. They even warn you when you move from a newer version back to an older version. I've been upgrading for years and never have run into a "show stopper" to the point where I would consider abandoning having a separate /home. -- It is clear that the individual who persecutes a man, his brother, because he is not of the same opinion, is a monster. - Voltaire èæå æåè / åååååèåæ
