Hello,

I just switched from Slackware to Debian.  Before that I switched
from Redhat to Slackware.  Redhat is still my favorite, but my RH CD
is scratched and won't install.  So I am trying new things. I am
using Debian 1.3. 

X won't work. I try to use the Config program, but when it says it is
switching to Graphics mode, it exists with can't connect to server
errors.

PPP won't work.  I am using the same PPP scripts that worked with
both Re dHat and Slackware.  With Debian, they start and wait a
couple seconds, then t hey quit.  They never do any dialing.  I have
the correct location of chat an d pppd (/usr/sbin/). 

Later
