Re: Upgrading to Xfree 4
There are xfree 4.0.1 packages by the Debian X maintainer, but they are still
experimental and not part of Debian "proper."
If you want to try them, add
deb http://samosa.debian.org/~branden/ woody/i386/
to your sources.list. Do an "apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade" and you'll
update yourself. However, these packages are not part of the distribution, and
you shouldn't use them if you're afraid of Things That May Go Wrong.
That said, I recently tried upgrading and the packages upgraded extremely
smoothly. There was a slight hiccup with the config file, but one symlink and I
haven't had a problem since.
