I am a former RedHat user and now want to try out Debian. I have dabbled in debian before but have always messed up, usually in the installation (using dselect). Plus, I only got kde 2.2 even after I updated the woody install. This time I decided I would rough it out :).
After reading up on the net, I did just a base install of woody, then ran the go-woody script so that I would be able to download and use more recent software (like kde 3.1.4 as in knoppix.). I now have a base install of testing (I think). I have cable internet (but a limited download allowance) and would like to have a proper debian system with X window system and kde. What is the way to go ? should I fire up tasksel and let the system download the software ? Or should I go with apt-get'ing the individual softwares and let apt manage the dependencies ? regards, Sharukh. -- Dr. Sharukh K. R. Pavri Homeopath and Linuxer.
