I've upgraded to woody, and things work, but startx was gone. Ok, no problem, I apt-got xbase-clients. That is interrupted by the following:
dpkg: error processing sysvinit (--configure): subprocess post-installation script killed by signal / (Segmentation fault) Errors were encountered while processing: sysvinit E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) So...having searched the debian-user archives fruitlessly, AND found that my sysvinit man page is broken, I appeal to ye wizards.
