I've just succesfully installed Debian (3.0 r2) on a new box (Intel
Celeron 400, 64 MB RAM, 6 GB HD). It appears to have a working
Internet connection as it downloaded a series of packages I asked for.
One of them I asked for was XWindows, thinking that would take me out
of the command-prompt world.

Alas, after I log in and type 'startx,' I get a "file not found."

I'd like to put a friendly, graphical face on my new Debian install.
Please help!  (I have two computers -- the non-Debian one is checking
this page every minute so I'll be able to reply to clarifications
immediately. Thank you.)
