It does, but I purged it as soon as I realised you could do
apt-cache search ^task*
and then just
apt install task-name
for the one you want... do you really need a front end for that :)

No, install the package task-x-window-system-core, as in
'apt-get install task-x-window-system-core'.

A package which causes everything you need for X to be installed.

Hey,
you should probably install something more like xfree86-common. But i think
right now you'll have to install the x server's seperately. Maybe:
# apt-get install xserver-common xserver-xfree86

You probably want to try 'gpm -k' before starting X. I understand that

why this problem should be confined to ps/2 mice. Good luck.

Hmm, I don't know if you can run gpm and X at the same time. Gpm is a
mouse driver for text terminals. I
Check your /etc/X11/Xserver file. the first line should have the path and
filename of the server
that you want to use. It seems that while other distributions link X to
the server you want to run,
Debian uses X as a small 'loader' program that reads the Xserver file and
gets the server to run fro
