(Thanks, Christian, for the fish. Now I'll try to sell the rod ;-) Reminder (paste this on a sticky note on your workshop wall :) apt-file search startx (or, if you want more specific results): apt-file search /usr/bin/startx A partial path, like bin/startx will do, too (so if you don't know whether the thing lives in /bin/foo, /sbin/foo, /usr/bin/foo, /usr/sbin/foo you can match against "bin/foo". Enjoy Debian :) Cheers -- t
