Hi Richard,

I can't tell you anything about the dependencies but you could try to
install xinit package. This contains the startx command.

(Thanks, Christian, for the fish. Now I'll try to sell the rod ;-)

I guess the reel and line are up to me ;}


Reminder (paste this on a sticky note on your workshop wall :)

   apt-file search startx

(or, if you want more specific results):

   apt-file search /usr/bin/startx

A partial path, like bin/startx will do, too (so if you don't know whether
the thing lives in /bin/foo, /sbin/foo, /usr/bin/foo, /usr/sbin/foo you
can match against "bin/foo".

Enjoy Debian :)

Been enjoying it since days of Squeeze. I just use it strangely.
Thanks.


Cheers
