Re: Gnome2

Another solution would be to edit your './sources.list' file, all you 
have to do is to replace the word stable with unstable. Please note, do 
one line at the time. For instance, modify the first line and then do 
an 'update' and 'dist-upgrade' ['dist-upgrade' is better than 
'upgrade'], than move to the next line and so on and so forth. Don't 
ask me why, that's the way I got it to work here. Crazy, eh!

Good luck
