Package: installation version 0.3.19
Severity: important Tags: help I was installing Debian and everything appeared to go well even it saying thanks for installing. Then when it goes to run for the first time it gives me a command line, so I type startx. Then it gives me an error message tells me to make sure and send you the whole xfree86 log file which could be found at var/log/xfree86.0.log I was attempting to create a dual boot system. My question is: since I can only log into in windows where I know whats going on because I can see, how do I mail you that file? I can log into my debian os it is just that it is at command prompt and I don't know how to mail the file to you while giving you some sort of idea that it is from me. Can you tell me what to do please? I installed the 2.6.8-2-386 version after getting the same result with the earlier version.
