You're welcome, Hans. > It's a P-III 1ghz, 256MB ram, so I don't want to loaded with a too heavy > distro... Your notebook seems to be as powerful as my desktop and that's because I upgraded its processor in the past weeks: it used to have a Duron 600MHz and now I have upgraded to a Duron 1100MHz, with 256MB of PC133 RAM (unfortunately running only at PC100 speed, as I have to underclock it to run it stably). I don't run any Desktop Environment. Just fluxbox (which I highly recommend with the "Minimal" style, as it is a low resource style) and some dock applications. > I just don't know which will be the most stable, as I imagine etch would > undergo a few big changes. I think that sticking with etch is still the safer choice, as the "10 day barrier" would prevent very buggy packages from entering testing. And keeping track of sites like http://bjorn.haxx.se/debian is a good thing, in my opinion.
