    I procured a set of installation CDs for Woody last September 2003, and
    installed the system on a generic i386 system, along with XFree86 4.3.0, and
    I got everything to work with some trial and error.

    The system sat unused for three or four months, and when I went back to it,
    I had to reinstall Debian, because of some dumb things I did. I then
    discovered that disk one of the install set was damaged, and would not load.
    I downloaded a new set of CDs for Woody, and tried to reinstall.

    Now, I seem to remember that the installation steps asked me last September
    whether xdm or kdm or gdm should be my X server. This newer installation
    set never asked me for that option. Did I forget to specify something when
    I started? I also don't see an option for samba configuration.

    Thanks for the help.
