Re: No NIC and No X - WTF Does It Take?
Yet another update...
This time when gdm failed to run, I went ahead and
said no when asked if I would like to try
configuring X again. After that, I logged in as root
and again ran dpkg-reconfigure xserver-
xfree86
This time, instead of entering PCI:00:11:00 (which is
what lspci showed the video card as, I
entered PCI:00:17:00, which for some reason is where X
thinks the card is at.
Anyway, startx brought be to the KDE desktop, with a
bunch of headache-induced flickering
everytime there was disk access or I moved the mouse.
As soon as I started to do anything,
the system crashed back to the command prompt.
Here is the session log...

So now, my questions are:
1: How do I make GNOME my default instead of KDE?
2: How do I get rid of that damn flickering?
3: Why did the X-Server crash?
