This is turning out to be a FAQ. I made a small mistake in the configuration scripts for the latest versions of the X packages. You need to add the line: #debian-not-configured ...to the file /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers and then run /usr/sbin/xbase-configure. I'll release corrected packages soon - but I think I have to finish my dissertation first. Steve Early [EMAIL PROTECTED]
