Using xmin to identify last modified rows

Hi,

Trying to identify last modified (updated or inserted) rows in a table, I
thought I could use xmin.

I tried is to get some lines sorted by xmin.

When doing it on a slonified database, I had no problem getting these lines.

But, trying the same query on a non slonified DB, I got an error, as there is
no ordering operator for xid.

I think that in the slon case, the query uses the implicit cast xid->xxid, and
then the operator to sort xxid.

What would be the best way to get last modified rows?

What I tried :
db=# select id_table, date_table, code_table from tb_table order by xmin desc
limit 10;
ERROR:  could not identify an ordering operator for type xid
ASTUCE : Use an explicit ordering operator or modify the query.

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
