Did they move it or just forgot to put it back in?> PS. <Was trying to install "Debian-7.8.0 AMD64 DVD (Wheezy)" using the KDE "Alternative Desktop Environment" at http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/7.8.0/amd64/bt-dvd/debian-7.8.0-amd64-DVD-1.iso.torrent, and it had a problem with the video card or monitor. When booting up, it did fine up to the point of the login screen and then it was just black. Worked fine on the desktop I have, just not on the Acer laptop. I heard that you upgraded the firmware and drivers in "Debian Jessie" including non-free firmware so I wanted to give it a shot. Booted up just fine. But when I went to the "Advanced Options" to change the "Alternative Desktop Environment" to KDE, that option wasn't there.
