Re: Fresh install w/o xfree

Cool! I'm using garnome to build gnome 2... I didn't even know I could do it via apt-get. If garnome doesn't work, I'd just use apt then.
I have another question though: how do I get an equivalent of Xconfigurator in debian? I've tried debconf and even though I've installed it, I'm told "command not found" I just want to reconfigure my Xserver because of this problem: If I start an X session and then switch to another screen (CTRL + ALT + COMMAND/APPLE + F2) all the screens look miserably dim. I don't know what's wrong, but please help me fix this. (is the solution editing XF86Config-4?) 

Thanks!

Hi all,
I just installed debian woody with the minimal CD and I'd like to add a 
graphical front end, but I can't find one. Could you please help me
install an x server and Gnome2 ?

You would need to upgrade to testing/unstable, or at least download
gnome2 from there.

You could try :

apt-get -t unstable install gnome

Which should pull in the unstable version of gnome (which is gnome2).

There are sopme problems with bonobo-activation though, so you should
downgrade these ones or wait a few days for a fixed version.

Friendly,
