Well 'lynx' is a good text based browser but you really need to install
X. If you do something like (as root or sudo)
# aptitude install kdebase, x-window-system-core
Then as user:
$ startx
it should get you started. You may find trouble configuring X and you
need to check out the log which I think for sarge is:
/var/log/XFree86.0.log
look for (EE) lines - that will indicate which interface is giving you
trouble. To change configuration:
# dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86
and change the offending setting.
To browse the web:
# aptitude install mozilla-firefox
to find an interesting cms try
$ apt-cache search cms
We use joomla
