Hello Stefaan, thanks for your reply. Can you specify which packages you downgraded exactly? I only managed to find a copy of xserver-common and xserver-xorg-core but installing them didn't seem to be enough as all I got was a blank screen I could not get out of (no ctrl+alt+f1/2/3/4). I found snapshot.debian.net but it seems its last update was on 2008 or am I looking in the wrong place? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
