All,
I tried the Debian net install iso tonight. All has gone well up to this point.
First package that I chose after getting networking sorted (needed to use pppoeconfig) was icewm. I can't remember the whole list but apt downloaded everything he thought was necessary. I did a dpkg -l and found that I have :
icewm
icewm-common
and further down
xfree86-common
BUT, I have no startx file on the system. Under /usr/X11/bin I only have icewm files and none of them are readable. 100% sure that $PATH isn't the issue either.
For info, my sources are stable, kernel 2.6.8-1-386
Regards,
Matt
