That depends on how you define "working KDE". The KDE metapackage depends
on packages that depend on mysql-server. Most KDE packages do not depend
on mysql-server.

I've been using Debian Etch happily since about October 2007. It's a

I have been looking for an Ethernet driver for my Asus m4n72-E

doesn't have the correct driver to load. It is the Realtek 8211CL

can get a Linux driver for this?
Unless you are running debian in a virtual machine under xp I don't see what
you are saying by wizard?
With debian there are several ways to handle installing packages, and
neither of them are like windows by double clicking on them. There may be
gui tool that does this but I am not sure. You

Hello !
I cannot answer to your question, but if your are effectively new to Debian,
getting familiar with it through the STABLE distribution (currently Lenny) is a
good idea.

/etc/init.d/gdm exists, and when I run `update-rc.d gdm defaults` it
