Make me number 5. However, when I saw that dpkg-reconfigure had been tickled on my last upgrade, I immediately went to the configuration file to see what was afoot. The only changes I had to make was to swap the order of the 75 and 100 dpi lines and change the initial resolution. The rest of the new configuration was "better" than my old one. How would one make these changes in debconf so that they would be preserved across updates? > And I still say that this isn't needed.

If you were running stable that would be the case. But you're not. Remember than when woody becomes stable, users will have to upgrade from XFree 3.x to XFree 4.x so their configuration files will change anyway. The X configuration has come a long, long way and is very nearly automatic, and that's a good thing. -- Bill Wohler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.newt.com/wohler/ GnuPG ID:610BD9AD Maintainer of comp.mail.mh FAQ and mh-e.
