I didn't say Sarge, I said Testing. He said Testing. Once Sarge is branched off, Testing will become completely unreliable and remain so for an unpredictable period.
Unstable has the latest kernels, which I took from his note to be a prerequisite. It also works quite well. It's "unstable" aspect merely means that updates aught to be done carefully and manually. If it doesn't work well for you, such is life. I agree with you that Sarge is well past due. Sure I have opinions about how the installer could have been done that would have saved many months, but I'm neither a developer nor major contributor. I must, like the rest of us mere users, allow these volunteers to do what they see fit to deliver something they are satisfied with. I am pleased they do it at all. In the mean time, I will recommend what works for the environment that is being asked about.
