in and an icon is made on the desktop in the same way as a usb disk or cd.
On my box, Rhythmbox opens up as well. So: I can use Rhythmbox to listen to

How do you get that function working and if it does not work, what is

Well, for apt configuration there is apt-config
For the network, there is a tool called network-config that has a cli
component. Man network-config. This can allow you to, in one command,
set up your ethX with DNS, IP, GW, etc etc.
se it was a kernel bug in the tcp
stack. The work around was to set in /etc/sysctl.conf
net.ipv4.tcp_frto = 0
you can test this by echo 0 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/frt0
I have no idea if this is the same issue, I am just guessing.

smart that is) that interface just does not work the
way my brain works. I still don't know how to use it and get frustrated
in 30 seconds trying to use it. Nothing against what I am sure is a
nice program, it just does not work the way I think. I feel better by
sharing, it has made us all better people (and dang it! People like

om stable to testing, from testing to sid (and
yes, I recommend not jumping from stable to sid directly) or if the
testing install works for you, from testing to sid, then you should
re-run the "additional software" tool by running as root "tasksel". You
would then selec

to ask yourself, "Do you feel lucky, Well, do you?"
The above was learned through two years working for Dell at the

dux IS Debian Sid with a few custom scripts that try to prevent you from
installing "buggy" software that will turn your install into a brick. One
warning, I made a separate home at install and it did not take. My /home was
in my 4G / partition and I ran out of room on the system when transferring
all my "must have" data back into /home. This required me to test my
emergency recovery skills in a single user log on.
I hope this helps.

And just for anybody else who might get bit,
remove /etc/udev/rules.d/65_dmsetup.rules a
ig
as root do nvidia-xconfig
then do startx
if you startx, you might want to do apt-get install nvidia-settings as run
that as root.
nvidia-xconfig will fix your xorg to comply with nvidia drivers (with out
respect to the way you installed nvidia.
I hope this helps and I am just going off of Florian's insight.
