problems with debian
Hello, Iam trying to install debian from a cd i got from a magazine but i am
not very good at linux so i dont know if it is me who is not installing it
properly.
The problem is that i get to install it and when i choose what to install
with tasksel i cannot pick any X-Window-System from the menu and so i think
i am not installing properly any desktop environment and it never starts
with gnome or kde though i know i have configure gnome2 (i upgraded it from
another cd). The further i get is that debian tries to run gnome (after
upgrading to gnome2) but it says something like "X-Window is not configure,
do you want to configure now?" I pick yes but it doesnt do anything.
Another problem i had during installation is that the locales in the cd (i
guess they are not very well), i cannot choose anyone of them. So that when
i finished installation my keyboard doesnt work properly and debian keeps
saying all the time "keyboard unknown scancode" or something like that.
I really appreciate your help because i wrote to the magazine telling them
the problems and they havent helped. Thankyou very much for your time.
david
