So that should not be the problem.

Maybe i should start from the beginning:
I have a text-based linux. What do I need to get eg. kde?
Is apt-get install kde not enough?

No; as mentioned, KDE does not depend on X, so simply installing KDEdoes not necessarily mean you have X installed.

"apt-get install x-window-system" should install X. Yet you say you have"x-window-system" installed, so I'm confused at this point.


Perhaps try "apt-get install x-window-system-core".
