-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Theoretically it is possible to mix and match from the different releases, but it is very tricky and not a good idea, especially for beginners. The problem is all the dependencies that go along with a "foreign" package. Sarge moved from testing to stable a little less than a year ago, and it isn't that old, actually. You can run a 2.6 kernel in it for instance. Etch is scheduled for release as the next stable version by the end of 2006, but such schedules have a tendency to be optimistic. - -- The Moon is Waning Gibbous (64% of Full) Get downloads from http://www.mhcable.com/~chuckh and remember, INFORMATION WANTS TO BE FREE! -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFERpyjXnuiIOyDVQURAlo/AKCNucaClnf3uImOZ9d0z2NEHPh15ACgk1N0 63iYqCFTeELKk54/Qkuirz4= =34SY -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
