At a command prompt, as root, try the commands: #apt-get install aptitude #aptitude install x-window-system kde gnome icewm wmaker fluxbox (This assumes you've got plenty of free drive space, say a couple of hundred megs. If not, the second command might should be "aptitude install x-window-system icewm".) Then try: #/etc/init.d/kdm start If that doesn't bring up a graphical login, repeat, and try gdm, or wdm, or xdm instead of kdm. If none of those work, try "startx". If all of the above fails to get X working for you, please post the lines marked with (EE) from /var/log/XFree86.0.log. You can copy this file to your shared Windows partition (or a Flashfob, floppy, etc) to get to the file when booted into Windows. > , and it won't auto-config my network card What does the network-related line from the output of "lspci" say is its chipset? -- Kent -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
