'dpkg -s 'gnome-desktop-enviroment' will show whether gnome was installed. If it was a complete standard install, 'startx' should produce error messages as to why X failed to start, video driver issue, etc. If you don't see it on the screen, read '/var/log/Xorg.0.log' for error messages. -- Peace, Greg -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
