I did read a bug error saying KDE and Gnome couldn't be installed together...tried many reinstalls with verios configurations. None of them work. Gnome works great however. If you really want KDE you might think about Libranet. The new stuff costs around $80 but you can get an earlier version for $1.99. Oh yeah, their printers work out of the box...

If so, that's odd, as KDM is usually installed as part of the KDE installation process.Just installed Woody 'succesfully', but couldn't find KDE which is already setted up as kdm.However, you can try "apt-get install kde" and that might get KDE installed for you. Report the results here, with any specific error messages that appear.Failed to install it manually, since when I go to /# /etc/apt/sources.list/ then found a message /bash:/etc/apt/sources.list : Permission denied/"sources.list" is a configuration file for apt/aptitude. You can look inside it, or edit it, but you can't run it, which it looks you're trying to do. That would be like trying to run a Microsoft Word document in Windows. My usual text editor is nano, so I'd edit the file with "nano /etc/apt/sources.list" (as the "root" user, of course). You can look at the contents of the file without editing it with "cat /etc/apt/sources.list", or "more /etc/apt/sources.list", or "less /etc/apt/sources.list". You probably don't want to edit it anyway unless you're wanting to update your system from Woody (Stable) to Sarge (Testing) or to Sid (Unstable), or are wanting to install packages from "third party" sources.
