ah yes - that wonderful &^%$#@ bug! as root, do this: cd /etc/gdm/Sessions/ ln -s /usr/bin/startkde KDE now, log out. for Sessions, KDE should now show up. choose it, and you're back in KDE! btw - Libranet already IS Sarge, plus some Sid & even a little Woody! one more thing - every single person on this list will tell you: installing & reinstalling, over and over, is the best way to learn. there's nothing wrong with that at all. in fact, i think you ought to let me mess up your box for you so have to reinstall! it'd be a learning experience. :) scott -- R.
