Thank you all that helped me last night. I did an 'apt-get install kde kdevelop kdelibs kdebase' and now the computer boots into an X logon screen for kde. At this point I can run kpackage or apt-get and add other 'stuff' and thats a good thing. I admit that my experience is with RedHat, so I dont know yet how to change back and forth between a text logon, a kde logon or a gnome logon in Debian. So, I cannot get back to the startx prompt at this time to experiment. I would enjoy experimenting with gnome versus kde versus text a bit as I am doing all this on my experimental computer, so I have the time to poke around. Unfortunately, my poking around for the last four years has all been RedHat and not Debian, so my incantations and cheat sheet doesnt help a great deal, only a little bit.
