I didn't write down the exact message; I just remember it saying that it was missing. Sorry! Next time I'll do better ... > Anyway, the first thing you should do is try to apt-get remove (or > dpkg --purge, if you're feeling vindictive and don't mind handling I just tried this; same results as before. > Also: when you say "X won't load", what do you mean? Does it go straight I start X using /etc/init.d/gdm start. The screen blinks for a bit, then it stops, then it blinks for a bit more, then it stops, then it does it again. I assume it's trying the three video modes (640x480, 800x600 and 1024x768) that I selected, and is finding that none of them works. By the way, my system apparently has no startx. I did read on the XFree86.org Web site that there are known problems with the ATI driver. I have an ATI Rage Pro Turbo AGP. Any other suggestions? I did have this working well under Potato. Thanks!
