Slink is built on the old glibc 2.0 while the vast majority of software
in the past year or so has been glibc 2.1 which is what potato (2.1
soon) and woody (unstable) are built on.

I couldn't say whether Helix (or any) Gnome could be built let alone
installed on slink, but I'm sure someone here will pipe up if it is
possible...

Other than that, I'd upgrade to potato :)
