Where can I find working X packets for slink

1998-11-05 Thread Tommi Kaariainen
I upgraded to the newest slink X packets (the x*3.3.2.3a-6 set) which I found to be horribly broken (they can't find fonts, locales are broken etc) in my experience. Where can I find the good old working packages? -- /Tommi K/ QOTD: "Her other car is a broom."

Ther has been some dicussion about psmisc being stuck in incoming in the master server. Is there way for a non-developer (especially for one who wants to be on the bleeding edge and thinks he know the risks) and to download packages that are in incoming, or is it so that if you have to ask you s
