You probably want to direct your questions to the list instead of to
individuals, because the list as a whole is generally more
knowledgeable than any one individual (such as in this case; I know
next to nothing about python), and because the exchange is archived
and therefore available for future seekers of similar information.

Thanks! I have a question, why is it that in the
terminal, after I entered python manage. py syncdb, then there's a
error which says that I haven't set the database ENGINE settings
yet. I opened the settings.py file and the ENGINE says
'django/db/backends/sqlite3'. You know why??

I quickly googled for django; looks to be a python-based
web-app
development tool.
Your question doesn't quite make sense; it sounds like you
installed
Debian for the first time in addition to django, and you're
not familiar
with Debian, or with GNU/Linux in general.
It sounds like you want to have a graphical system running;
currently,
you just have a text-based system running on your Debian box.
You may already have the X Windowing System installed (which
will give
you graphics), in which case you can just enter the command
"startx &".
If it's not installed, you'll have to install it; probably the
quickest
easiest way is to run "tasksel" and choose the option to
install a
graphical desktop environment, which should pretty much give
you
everything you'll be wanting.
