How download revolution 2.9 beta ?

[Peter Alcibiades]

Tried to get Beta3 from within the Beta2 program.  It does indeed download, or 
says it is, and then a small window appears, and it appears from the progress 
bar to complete the download, but everything then freezes.  Tried a couple of 
times.  The small window seems to be showing a snapshot of the desktop 
contents under it when it was created.  If you drag stuff across the window 
it shows a sort of stripy repetition of what was dragged across. Never seen 
this before.   If you click all over the small window, nothing happens.

This is on Debian Lenny, Gnome.  I'll have a go with a different desktop 
manager just to make sure.
