[ILUG-BOM] Seek advice to quit Windows

[Varadarajan V]

Hi,

I downloaded Debian Sarge and tried to install it. The installation went fine.
But I think i missed to select the "Desktop" option during
installation. If I enter
"startx" command i encounter errors. I thought Xfree86 was not
installed. so I tried
'apt-get install x-windows-system'. I found this in the Internet. But
still "startx"
wouldnt work. I am trying to figure that out.
But I have a question. When I first installed Sarge. I could see a X11
folder in /etc.
Why was this folder created if X was not installed initially? Is it
created by default?

Thanks for all the encouragement.


Regards,
Raj
