Hello,
I installed debian 4.0 r3 amd64 on my laptop an Acer Aspire 9920. The
graphic card is Nvidia 8600M.
The installation went well until after the reboot. Then the X server
didn't start. I installed then with apt the debian package n"vidia-glx".
But when I then start X I get a blank screen

Hi
I just installed etch, and x doesn't start, the monitor says video mode
not supported.
I chose to power off the computer at this point.
I presume the method to correct this will to restart in text mode, and
edit xorg.conf for the proper video mode for the monitor.

Hi all,
After choosing afterstep and some other stuff in dselect, when I reboot my
machine, it says it's starting kdm, but nothing happens. And when I do exec
xdm, it just logs me out.
Any idea how to fix this?
Thanks!
