Why not just take advantage of the *-updates (supported iiRC) or *-backports (unsupported iiRC) repository infrastructure that already exists? The packages that require the most frequent updating should be identified (e.g. the ones you mentioned: Tor, Tremulous, Warsow, Firefox, Wine, etc.) and then flagged for frequent updates. > PS: I use the Wine repo too.

Have you tried... deleting your Wine folder (~/.wine) and starting fresh? running winecfg and under the "Graphics" tab, checking "Emulate a virtual desktop"? (I suggest setting its size smaller than your desktop; e.g. if your monitor runs Ubuntu at 1280x1024, try running Wine at 1024x786) CK -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
