What graphic card do you have? X doesn't work on FX graphics cards. I have the visualize EG/PCI and X works fine. I cheaply bought it on internet The kernel of woody (2.4.17) does not support usb mouse and keyboard, you need to install a recent kernel. .. For example I have installed the kernel-image 2.4..24 . Take a look to the parisc boot howto I use it to install debian on my c3k. It is really helpfull!!! http://www.pateam.org/parisc-linux-boot/doc.html the ide cd rom is not supported from debian. You have to use an external scsi cd drive to use your cd set and install debian.
