tasksel installs the same quantity like RedHat and SuSe or Mandrake
After the baseinstallation and reboot, a newbie can type
apt-get install mozilla
and he/she will get a working system wit a x-window-system
Curently it does not work (POTATO, WOODY and SARGE) and newbies do
not know, that there is a Meta-Package x-window-system(-core) same
for a windowmanager.
