Hopefully somone comes back with a good answer soon. Until then, I just wanted
to confirm that I have installed woody on a number of machines initially using
the bf2.4 kernel and installed the xserver-xfree86 package.
Are you installing using another kernel package, then selecting the vf2.4 and
xserver-?
Have you tried installing from a base-install source that has the bf2.4 kernel?
What xserver package are you trying to install? xserver-xfree86?
What server are you using for your local debian mirror?
http://ftp.nl.debian.org/ ?

......... no, jacob, i am not using another than the standard kernel-package
for woody stable,
yes i did that, if you mean a so called 'short' cdrom which i downloaded from
the internet with the base-package && kernel modules (sound, scsi em. etc.)
yes, the standard package as well, i think, xserver-xfree86, which apt-get
gets from the ftp-server,
yes, i am using our local ftp: ...ftp.nl.debian.org
thank you for your reaction,
steef
