I'm guessing you have command line thus: $ If so type 'su' followed by the root password and then run # aptitude You will then be able to select kdebase and x-window-system-core ... that should get you started with a desktop. Once installed, hit Ctl-d to exit root and then $ startx Good luck :) Regards Clive -- www.clivemenzies.co.uk ... ...strategies for business -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
