Then in "/etc/apt/apt.conf.d/" create a file (I suggest "10default") containing the following line: APT::Default-Release "testing"; Then run the following commands: apt-get update apt-get install x-window-system/unstable That will pull the x-window-system package from the unstable branch and should pull the other packages that it needs or at least give you a listing of them. -- Jamin W.
