Well for one thing, if you are ever going to install any Debian packages whatsoever, I would recommend using either dselect, or in a case where you don't have net access, or a local distribution media, go to the debian web page and get the packages from their package section (which sad to say has been down lately). The reason for this is that it will automatically tell you what other packages you will need for the install (dependencies). Now on to the meat... if you have everything installed, you might try running as root... /usr/sbin/xbase-configure and then ... /usr/bin/X11/xf86config Be sure to read the instructions in xf86config carefully, as most problems with X come from incorrect values specified for monitor capabilities and card types. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
