Hi,
I have been using Debian 2.0 (from install disks) along with kernel
2.0.33 for the past month or two. My Debian box serves httpd, ftpd, telnetd for
some friends: 24/7 on a permanent ppp modem link. It also has NT and with linux
loaded off the NT boot loader. NT is the default choice.

I installed kde-base and several other kde packages and edited
/etc/X11/window-managers to put /usr/X11R6/bin/kde first, but when I type
'startx', X starts up and then dies without any error messages before the
window manager loads. Is there something I missed?
