Re: Debian newbie: question on apt-get and sources.list

["Sanjay Chigurupati" <Sanjay.Chigurupati@lntinfotech.com>]

Hi,
fixed it.

just put the following line in sources.list:

deb http://www.backports.org/debian stable/pre xfree86

The trick was putting the slash between stable and pre. Without that apt
was looking at the 4.2 version of xfree86

Regds,
Sanjay
