Clearly, it wasn't installed correctly. There are all kinds of X applications and libraries in place, but I must have missed something. I presume that a remove and re-install is the correct procedure then? My guess is that you have the X libraries installed, but not the X server. See, if you do all your work on a remote machine, then you don't need an X server but you can still use X applications. But in your case, you need to install one of xserver-* plus xbase. If it still doesn't work after doing this, or if these are already installed, then remove and re-install might help, but in general this is not a solution to problems: this is not Winblows, where `reinstall' is the cure to all problems. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
