Hi Michael;
I use Ubuntu 12.04LTS so I’m not sure what the LDXE desktop is supposed to look like. But it probably comes as a blank slate and has a method of adding “launchers” (Windows short cut) and links to the desk top. As you say, Google is your best shot. Also there is probably a way in Debian to have the BBB boot straight to the desktop.

Do I need to configure the GUI in order to make it work? WIll be "Googling" the subject.

When I connect my Insignia TV to the BBB HDMI port, all I see is the BeagleBone logo. Shouldn't I see the LXDE desktop? I've run "apt-get install lxde xorg" & "apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-all". Any solution would be very much appreciated.
