hello, folks as I´m a debian newbie (coming from suse), may be the following questions are stupid, but I got stuck with them.
1) Is there a way to install a deb-package which is not included in the standard distribution. If I try to install a package that I downloaded from Internet, dselect always asks me on some package.cd files to recognize the packages as part of the distribution, which of course I cannot give, and so dselect does not do the job; and alien does only work correct with small packages (deb -> rpm -> install) without broken dependencies 2) where is the information stored, that debian starts with graphical login? I want to finish boot process at the prompt, but debian always starts his graphical login utility. Can this behaviour only be changed by deinstalling the utility? thanks in advance Roger
