Thanks in advance


When you log in try 'startx' if you have some desktop environment it should be started.
I gues you are download standard .iso without choosing DE so it is Gnome.

If you don't have any DE, just log in, 'su' and 'apt-get install gnome'

If you wont Gnome choose 'gnome' if Kde 'kde-full' if Xfce 'xfce4' etc.

You can find here any package http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages
