Is dapper to to much like debian sid?
It's almost a silly question I guess, since dapper is based on sid, but I am begginning to think that maybe a sarge install will suit my needs better. Dapper has been one headache after another. The latest xserver-xorg-core upgrade may be the straw that broke the camel's back. Honestly, the previous 3 versions were better than this one. I need something more stable on this laptop. It's fine for the computers I don't use as much as this one though. Maybe I am being a little harsh, it' not been that bad, mainly the synaptics touchpad, and now this. For the most part it's been alright--but not great. Now that I am doing this podcast though, I need something that just works all the time. I don't have the time to be playing around with trhying to fix things. I may end up changing my mind, but it looks like I am going to have to find the time to backup some stuff and do a debain stable install on this laptop.

WORD OF CAUTION
Dapper upgrade issued tonight xserver-xorg-core 1:1.0.2-0ubuntu10.3 will break your xserver. Downgrade with sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-core=1:1.0.2-0ubuntu10 if you were unfortunate enought to have upgraded to this latest version.
