I just did an installation of potato 2.2r2 from CD and had no problem getting the SVGA server to install. 1. Run 'apt-cdrom add' to get the CD package lists. 2. Run 'apt-get install xserver-svga. If this doesn't work, try mounting the CD and installing the server with dpkg. The files you need are on CD #1: debian/dists/potato/main/binary-i386/x11/xserver-common_3.3.6-11potato15.deb debian/dists/potato/main/binary-i386/x11/xserver-svga_3.3.6-11potato15.deb If it still doesn't install, I suspect you may have a faulty CD. In that case you can hopefully install over an internet connection. -- Bob Nielsen, N7XY [EMAIL PROTECTED] Bainbridge Island, WA http://www.oz.net/~nielsen
