Duh - I almost forgot about Firestarter, and that's what I actually started with today! I'm familiar with it from using it with Fedora. I just installed Sarge, and I'm new to Debian and pretty new to Linux. I have some issues with X and my display, and I don't have Gnome working yet. I do have KDE working (at some stupidly low resolution), but I couldn't find an entry for Firestarter anywhere in the KDE menus (after appropriately installing Firestarter). When I did the same things in Knoppix/Sid, I did find the Firestarter entry in the KDE menus. Anyway, I think I will keep working on getting Firestarter going. What if I'm using KDE and open a terminal -window- and then start firestarter - Will that make the GUI appear?? I know it doesn't work from the console - just says it can't find any screens. I don't read anything about it having a text mode. Thanks! - John -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
