I just set up a seperate partiton with LMDE (64bit-gnome) this time tracking Debian Stable. I followed "life in the grey's" tutorial.
http://community.linuxmint.com/tutorial/view/497
and with "zerozero's" help.
All went great.
Now have Gnome 2.3 again.
I added Debian 'Backports' to get the more up to date application upgrades.

I have what is not really a big problem but an 'annoyance'
When running an update (from synaptic or CLI) I get this 'failed to fetch' error?
Failed to fetch http://ftp.us.debian.org/stable/dists/m ... 4/Packages 404 Not Found [IP: 199.6.12.70 80]
Failed to fetch http://ftp.us.debian.org/stable/dists/m ... 4/Packages 404 Not Found [IP: 199.6.12.70 80]
Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
I tried changing 'stable' to "squeeze', no change same problem (but of course says)
Failed to fetch http://ftp.us.debian.org/squeeze/dists/ ... 4/Packages 404 Not Found [IP: 199.6.12.70 80]
Does anyone see anything wrong with my sources list. ?
Thanks.
