that should be pretty easy then.. make sure you have some of the basic packages installed: apt-get install xfonts-100dpi xfonts-75dpi xfonts-base xserver-xfree86 xbase-clients xserver-common next, you should create /dev/mouse, this would be a symlink to your mouse, so if your mouse is connected to the PS2 port I would: cd /dev ; ln -s psaux mouse then run: cd /root ; X -configure that will attempt to identify all your settings, when it exits run XFree86 -xf86config /root/XF86Config.new if you see a black/white dotted screen with an X cursor and the mouse works, then its working, hit CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE to exit, copy the /root/XF86Config.new to /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 then you need to install a windowmanager or desktop enviornment, I use afterstep, but seems gnome and kde are getting popular, use apt-cache to find the packages, or you can try tasksel which can select groups of packages to install. good luck, should be easy, TNT is a well support video card as is your monitor. for 3D acceleration you'll need nvidia's drivers but you can work on that later, first get 2D workin nate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
