Hi Guðmundur
Thank god for cut'n paste, I wouldn't know how to write your name else!
Well, I would recommend Potato, and then add:
deb http://spidermonkey.helixcode.com/distributions/debian unstable main
to /etc/apt/sources.list, and voila, you have Potato with Helix-GNOME.
I've used it for a month now, and it's no problem at all!
Don't worry about using unstable stuff on Potato, it works allright.

Morten
