Hi Jochen,
first of all, thanks for answering so promptly,
the new version of KDE is not at all of major importance to me, I just
fancied having some of it's features like a new themeable kdm, i.e.
However, I do realise that this is not really that important, is it? :-)
I think I could manage problems that might arise from upgrading and I'm not
a comlete newbie for that matter... I know Kubuntu, but no, I just love my
debian ;-) I think I'll give etch a try within the next days...
Best regards, J
