What does "latest version" mean?  Two "versions" of Debian receive constant
updates: Sid (unstable) and Sarge (testing).

I'm assuming you mean that after installation, the GUI doesn't start
automatically.  What if you type "startx" at the command line?  If that
doesn't work, what appears on your screen?

What's the output of the command "dpkg --get-selections | grep dm"?  How
about "dpkg --get-selections | grep xfree"?
