I solved the instability problem by never typing > "apt-get upgrade" :-) Of course by doing this you 1) never get security upgrades, and 2) eventually can't install software anymore, since the current versions starts needing newer libs. I also did something similar (ran debian stable, doing my upgrades, though) for years, but switched back to a rolling upgrade (but not before gigs) model. ATM I'd rather handle problems once in a while, one at the time, and be able to work with new versions of the software I run. -- Atte http://atte.dk http://modlys.dk http://virb.com/atte _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
