But I heard of some problems with Xfree 4.0 not working right after an
apt-get dist upgrade to woody. Also SAS not working. I assume that
Storm Package will always work with future versions of Debian as long as
dselect itself makes no major changes. Lets say if I upgraded to woody
right now from a Storm 2.06 system, what problems might I encounter?
Will all the configuration of my hardware (all of what SAS has
configured) stay the same?
The main thing I am worried about is the upgrade to Xfree 4.0... I don't
know what to do once X won't start, and GDM won't come up. What to do
if startx won't work.
