you cannot just put packages from sid into a squeeze system and hope that they install or work correctly. the way of making that work is known as backporting (rebuilding newer packages from testing or unstable on stable). for the kernel, maintained backports for squeeze are available at progress-linux.org. for lightdm, i'm not aware of an existing backports, but it's trivial to do yourself (simple rebuild should be enough). -- Address: Daniel Baumann, Donnerbuehlweg 3, CH-3012 Bern Email: daniel.baum...@progress-technologies.net Internet: http://people.progress-technologies.net/~daniel.baumann/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-live-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
