 i just upgraded to potato last night and the enlightenment/gnome stuff is
sweet.  however, i still haven't found a way to use the JDK under potato, so
i'm going to have to reboot and use my slink partition pretty soon.

 it bothers me that debian is behind SuSE and Redhat when it comes to something
like gnome and other frequently-changin software, but it's still a much better
distribution, because of the .deb package format and apt.
