You sure there is -nothing- in Xfree86.0.log? AFAIK this file is
always written when XFree V4.x starts up - are you running X
3.3.

don't care about this when you are completely new and can't get
anything running.

I have been battling with X on debian for about a week and
finally have it working as well as a much better grasp on how X
works than I've ever had (a good thing).
Have I sent my congrats to the man page authors for Debian in
general? I should, debian (potato/woody) seems to have the
best man

I'm trying to install Xfree 4.10-14 onto an otherwise
(reasonably) stock potato machine but am having a problem with a
dependancy.
It appears that this build, found in testing, requires debconf >=
0.5, but, strangely, this version seems not to exist in testing
but rather its in unstable (??!!)

I think what is meant here is that if you have a (fairly
massive) bunch of .deb files in your apt cache could you do a
completely fresh install of debian using this cache as the
source?
My guess woul

I'm a fellow SuSEer. Finally got tired of RPM hell so I'm here
trying on a Debian coat. So far

G'day list,
I'm somehow managed to mung the dselect database to a point
where it wants to uninstall a heap of critical packages and
install a boatload of stuff I don't want.
I'm uninclined to ferret through the entire dselect package
listing to try and work out whats happened - it would be far
sources list to testing then
anything I try to install in the future will most likely come
from testing rather then stable - I want to be able to choose -
specific- instances of testing packages but on the whole remain
at stable.
