Thanks a lot for your answer! So, I'll wait some days...
And now I made it, to install a 2.6.16-kernel on sarge and nothing bad
happened this time... graphics and sound are runnning now.
But now, I have another question: where can I get packages like
libdvdcss to access my DVDs? All the marillat-mirrors I know seem to
be down actually: nerim..., spello..., ucla...
Is there any mirror running out there?
Regards,
