"no screens found" error



Hello there

I have been trying to get a graphics environment to work in linux
(gnome,
kde, or x). Im very new to linux.

The system is an 800Mhz AMD Duron with 256Mb SDRAM with 80Gb Maxtor
HD.

When its installing, i get two error messages that packages cxref and
gdm
(??) didn't install properly. How might i fix that?

The system is shared graphics -- is this a problem? ( i tryed putting
in a Voodoo3 card but i get the same error messages).

When using vesa and starting x i get "no screens found".

The Debian version is 3.0r2 (woody) and i've tryed both the kernel
versions
which come with it (err, 2.2.0 and 2.4.0 i think).

Any help or information would be very much appreciated!
James
