User error.  Did you know you have to save the changes for them
to take affect?  Stupid computer should have known what I meant.

Now on to the next stuff.  Sound.  It told me to run esd.  Esd
asked if sound was compiled into the kernel.
How do I see the list of things that are available for Debian?

Debian is kind of cool.  I think I'm gonna have to take it
home.

Gnome is even similar enough to Windoze that these Microsoft
groupies around here can figure it out.

can't find the mouse... hmm.... 3 button logitech is standard,
shouldn't
need a module for it.

Did you install XF86Setup (apt-get install xf86setup)?
That is still the best X setup tool.

nano is a pico clone.  Pico isn't free (enough) software.
apt-get install nano

You can also install real pico too, it's not hard...
You can either get the official debian source, and build it
yerself
apt-get pine4-src and pine4-diffs and build it (follow the
instructions)

OR add this to your /etc/apt/sources.list:

deb http://dr.jones.dk/pub/debian/local potato misc workstation

I think he's got pine binaries there...

there are a few others... can't find them right now...
