I have an IBM T20 Laptop and want to put on it Etch
(Kernel 2.6.18-3) with Kde. The installation without GUI
is fine, but Kde will not launch. Error messages in
/var/log/kdm.log indicate that the installer assumed the
laptop has a Synaptics Touchpad and this cannot be detected.

First of all, thanks to you all.
I've tried "installgui acpi=off tasksel/first=kde-desktop"
The installation starts without complaining, but kde is not installed.
