Re: Re: Problems with xserver-xfree86
Unfortunately, it's impossible at this time to hook the machine up to
the 'net to be able to email transcripts, otherwise I'd do this.
I've made sure to have xserver-common and xfree86-common install,
especially since they're dependencies. So I know it's not due to that.
In fact, I've also made sure to install all of the Suggests packages
(and Recommends) to make sure none of the files are in there.
