ummm... its in your subject line. though you need sudo or to be root.
dpkg-reconfigure debconf
then select dialog.
If only it were that simplex!
I changed the dialogue to KDE which means it needs X which I un-installed. It won't let me reconfigure any thing.
Does that make sense? It's not obvious what the problem is, I know. Bear with me.
Thanks.
