The computer which I was using did not have an ethernet card,
nor Wi-Fi.

I have since doubled the amount of memory in it to about
380 Mega Bytes.
I wiped the hard disk drive, and re-installed Jessie 20140616.

I obtained a similar result,
notwithstanding the increase in memory capacity.

So,
I wiped the hard disk drive again, and
installed Wheezy, Debian 7.5.0 DVD-1 + DVD-2 + DVD-3.
Again selecting Advanced -> Alternative Desktop -> Lxde.

For some reason the system installed 4 packages from DVD-2.
Anyway, it worked.
It is slow, but it works.

I do not know what those four packages from Wheezy DVD-2 are.

I hope that this is useful, or more to the point, that
Jessie Lxde will work for people who cannot afford new computers.

with best regards from
Richard Betham
