Etch Downgrade

[gm5729]

Apt generally does not handle downgrades too easily. You may have to
look for your file in Old Stable (Sarge) and change your
/etc/apt/sources.list for Sarge. Do realize though that there were
changes made to X11 system from Sarge to Etch. They went from Xfree86
to Xorg in those two releases. The libraries might not be compatible
and cause even further degradation to your system.
