If you're new to Debian, I woudn't. Start with stable until you're familiar with Debian. When you know the basic things about the packaging systems, read the apt_preferences man page: you can easily run stable and install some important software from testing. Remember: testing does *not* have security support. If a security issue is discovered, it's solved for stable, and probably very quickly in unstable, too. testing takes at least 3 days (often more) to catch up - so you'll be installing things from unstable - this may work or it may not... cheers -- vbi -- this email is protected by a digital signature: http://fortytwo.ch/gpg NOTE: keyserver bugs! get my key here: https://fortytwo.ch/gpg/92082481
