LOL. Yeah, I could have written this same email when I was trying to use
dselect a year ago before learning how to use it. I can feel the
frustration here in this poor person. I had it too. I was trying to
install slink I think. Hopefully he'll do the same thing I did - stay with
RedHat for a while and try again later. Fortunately potato had X 3.3.6
which had my video driver and I was able to install and bypass dselect for a
while. Then I learned about apt-get which made a big difference. Good
luck.
