I installed Etch on my laptop, and have cds 1 2 and 3. During the
setup, it said to make sure xserver-xorg was loaded, and it is
installed. Debian boots to tty terminal, though. I type "startx" and
get a crosshatched desktop with a black terminal in the upper left
corner. There is an X pointer, and it does respond to the touchpad,
but I can't affect anything beyond typing in the terminal.
I did a net-install of Etch on my desktop, and it went fine.
Unfortunately, my wireless card for the laptop hasn't shown up yet.
So I'm wondering whether this is Xwindows or Gnome-oriented, and
whether it's from using the CDs instead of net-install, or from being
on the laptop. It's a Micron Transport ZX.
