Never expect unstable to work without getting your hands dirty  :)

Might I suggest testing (woody) instead of stable?  It's usually
okay enough for a desktop box (I wouldn't use it for a production
server unless I had a lot of free time to keep an eye on things),
but has a lot of the newer stuff from unstable.

It doesn't break too often, especially where the core packages
are concerned.
