Greetings, I've installed amd64 etch and moved on to setting up X. I got iver the nVidia card hurdle and run
apt-get install x-window-system apt-get install gnome apt-get install kde (trying to avoid restarting the gnome vs. kde flames :)) X starts fine using both GNOME and KDE, the login screen collects password, I get the spalsh screen and it shows the first load step (?), i.e. the icon the debian sqauare with the caption "Window Manager" but it stops there, no additional loads happen. If I click on the icon, the square disappers and I'm lef with the background. If I kill X, kdm/gdm will restart it. If I leave it alone, the screen saver kicks in. Seems to me that the window manager fails to load. Any suggestions what I should check? TIA, -a
