After a clean install of etch from the netinst CD I installed xorg and kde.
Thanks to this list good advice I have modified my sources.list and my preferences file for APT with the objective of installing KDE 3.4.1.
Must have goofed somewhere since aptitude update ; aptitude upgrade does not propose ANY upgrades.
Can anyone spot my error ? See attached files. Thank you, Bob
