Debian unstable broken?
Posted by eddor1614 on Thu 17 Jul 2008 at 19:55
hello
after a dist-upgrade my machine does not work well.
the mouse is dead, new USB devices don't work, because the /dev entries doesn't get created.
/dev/null has wrong permissions. Sound modules do not load automatically.
this is very strange.
i'm looking into this.
modprobe psmouse and the mouse is working, but after reboot i have to manually modprobe.

While you are correct that it is called unstable for a reason it is normally more stable than some operating systems I could mention...

Welcome to the Unstable branch! I highly recommend you read this unofficial FAQ for Sid. That, along with installing the apt-listbugs package, should keep you from breaking things too badly on a regular basis.

it's unstable as sid himself, the toy story character for which the unstable distro is affectionately named...see what I mean:
