Thanks. I see where that that set kdm as the default but all I got was a
command prompt. I must have been in runlevel 5 'cause gdm would work.

BTY - this Debian distro isn't sarge; it's Agnula.

When I go to kde.org I don't find any source or binaries for Debian. I can
see that there are KDE folders and files on the partition, but KDM won't
initialize.

I'm think that, thus far, Debian hasn't got a lot of KDE support yet. Gnome
is second best in my view.

I'm still trying to get a KDE environment up and running in Agnula.
