Are you installing Woody (stable)?  If your system is new Woody may not 
have support for it.  I would only recommend stable for server 
environments, if this case is a workstation then use Sarge.  It has 
later software and is more likely to support your hardware.  If the 
system is a toy, use Sid :-D; I imagine you'd fall in love with it in no 
time ;-). 

Cheerio,
