Comments/Problems:
My computer currently does not have any network adapter so that there were no 
network HW to configure, and network configuration resumed to choose a 
hostname.

xserver-xfree86 configuration selected 'IntelliMouse' protocol for my mouse 
(whithout asking me) whereas the only working protocol for it is 'ImPS/2': I
had to modify /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 by hand, so that we can't say that 
everything worked "out of the box".

That's all folks,
Lionel.
