I'm using whatever is in Etch, and as stated in another reply to the
Debian maintainer, I'm unlikely to be upgrading Linux, or *nix, ever.
It has become too painful. Maybe some people on the Ion list can of 
more help, but ...


PS. This whole "thread" is spread and fucked up over many different
mailing lists and recipients. I apparently only got this post, because
news.gmane.org shows shows through NNTP the post for
gmane.comp.window-managers.ion.general, because the address of that
list is in the headers, and it got the post through another list,
although the post never actually got on the list (requiring subscription, 
to combat spam). But I can't reply to that list, because they've not
allowed posting through gmane, even if subscription wasn't required,
which I don't know. Mailing list architecture is fucked up, and should
be more based on subscription to threads than lists/groups.
