Thanks for the reply. While I'm new to Debian, I'm not new to Linux. I like to stay more up-to-date on my machine than Woody is, and made the (apparently incorrect) assumption that the testing version would be a good compromise between Woody and the unstable version. The wiki implied that apt-get install kde *SHOULD* have worked, but apparently it doesn't under Sarge. I'll reload it with SuSE 9.0. That will work for me. I wanted to try out Debian - which looks very good BTW - but it sounds like it won't meet my needs.
