Back in the first part of January I used the beta network
installation CDROM to start etch on my new box. I ended up with the GNOME
desktop and gdm. I used aptitude install kde to get what I could of KDE
but evidently aptitude is holding some packages because they're not yet in
testing.
Like H. S., I also posted a general query but didn't get any
replies. In February I'll try to get to another DSL connection and see if
any more packages come down. I used a Debian mirror in Georgia, USA.
