- this is not a personal remark but a vented frustration - I've mentioned this many times before but it doesn't seem to trickle thru into 'that one thing to do'. Debian Linux has some excellent howto's and readme's wich will get you thru 99.5% of all your installation and configuration trouble. It is worth reading/searching these/thru howto's because they contain exactly what you need.
It might take you a few hours or just a few minutes (depends on your skills and chance factor) to get thru it but you'll have learned MUCH more then you started out with. You'll even grasp some basic understanding of your linux system and so on. In the end you'll see this is a good mood of operation, it takes time and yes it's rather tedious/boring/annoying but never a shamefull thing to do. Get yourself Midnight Commander installed as well since it offers a great way to browse thru these documents and also has a good search *cough* engine (just used the find instruction really) wich is easy to use. Lynx might also be usefull if you have the html documentation installed since it offers a fast way to navigate thru the howto's (wich are in html) Really, i had to do it too and yes i hated it at first but know i'm a full fledged documentation worm.
