Hi, being a newbie to GNU/Linux I have a few questions... 1. Debian keeps starting X as soon as I boot into linux. It give me the graphical login screen and everything. This is annoying because I don't seem to be capable of exiting X... Is there any way to stop Debian from running xdm on startup?
2. My ethernet card, a Netgear fa310tx, came with a driver disk. The disk has a linux directory with but one file 'tulip.c', which is clearly the driver... How do I install this to get my ethernet card working? 3. Is there any way to stop 8bpp as being the default color depth for X and switch it to say, 16bpp. I know I could startx using -- - 16bpp but I'm a little lazy and just want 16bpp to be the default. Thanks for all your help making my transition to the free software crusade easier!
