Yeah, I'm getting the same message, getting fallback mode instead. It's to do with graphics card in my case, I need the non-free drivers to get it working, apparently, so I'm going to give it a try later. The KDE Wheezy worked fine live though.

Sure. If one exercises some care, it can be smooth sailing. Anyone who uses testing and/or sid and/or experimental should know what they are up against. Those not willing to take the risk, can wait for the UP's :-)

FWIW, I always run the liquorix kernels on all my machines. Currently, running 3.8-13, libreoffice 4.0.3.
