seems you missed the critical part of your hardware, the VIDEO CARD. Please specify the chipset the videocard uses if possible, the amount of memory on it, and also it cant hurt to specify the montior.
if the machine has a network connection you can add: deb http://www.debian.org/~vincent/ xfree-update main to /etc/apt/sources.list then run apt-get update ; apt-get upgrade or download/install the packages manually from http://www.debian.org/~vincent/dists/xfree-update/main/binary-i386/ I would mail the list and/or check www.xfree86.org for grpahics card compadiblity (if its a new card) before going through the trouble of trying to configure X. XF86 3.3.6 recently came out, but i dont think there are debs of it yet. nate On Fri, 14 Jan 2000, Rob Hensley wrote: zoid >Hi, I recently installed debian, and I'd now like to get the all the zoid >packages I need for X Windows (XFree86).
