KDE 4.4 uses many of the features of modern graphics cards. If your card is old, you may not get the best experience. 2. Mixed system. Something like http://iguanasuicide.net/node/4, but for Ubuntu rather than Debian. Get most of your packages from Hardy (like I do from Lenny) but get your KDE from Karmic (like I do from Sid). I use a mixed Hardy/Jaunty setup for http://www.freegeekarkansas.org/ -- I wanted to be mostly LTS, but we needed Drupal 6. Also, IIRC, Hardy's mediawiki doesn't like Hardy's PostgreSQL 8. 3. Debian Sid+Squeeze. It's a mixed system, but one that is well supported. It does break from time to time, but usually not for very long. By keeping Squeeze in your sources.list, you (mostly) prevent transitions from rendering packages completely uninstallable. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. bss@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/ \_/
