Hi, I re-installed gnome (gmc gnome-control-center gnome-panel gnome-session gnome-game gnome-terminal gnome-utils) with the apt-get installation tool from Debian after an erroneous installation. This far, I didn't have any trouble or error message. Of course, some libs had to be updated to fulfill dependencies with the packages. I then restarted to the login screen but it didn't start again. I'm unable to login through XDM. The screen shows the typical movements of the Xserver trying to come up, but the screen keeps black. What can be the difficulty? Can it be that some libs that are used by XDM where also updated and now show incompatibilties with other XDM packages? Apt-get should realize this dependency problems... Did anybody experience this as well? I use Debian 2.0 ("Hamm"). Any answer to what I should do are welcome. Thanx, Marcio Cordero
