did the debian devs think they were doing? My music machine is set up precisely as I want it with no spare fluff or eye-candy, and fits my workflow like a glove. I seldom make any changes, but thought it high time I checked for upgraded packages. Up till now this has never been any kind of problem and usually results in some tiny overall improvements. Today was different. Without asking, indeed, without even a warning, they installed GDM, Gnome3 and pulse audio, thus rendering my computer totally useless. The only thing I could do was reboot, then log into recovery mode, find aptitude and delete the crap. I will never really trust debian again :( -- Will J Godfrey http://www.musically.me.uk Say you have a poem and I have a tune. Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
