I tried to get XFree86 4.0.1 working on my laptop, but cannot. I
decided to just downgrade for now, so I can use it. Here's how I did
it, in case anyone else needs to do the similar.
dpkg --list | grep '4.0.1-0' | awk '{print $2;}' | xargs --remove
--force-depends --auto-deconfigure
editor /etc/apt/sources.list
<comment off the lines pointing to the experimental X packages>
apt-get update
apt-get -f install
That's it. It's still running now, but should be straightforward
getting it going again, once I figured the other part out.
