Install went fine (apart from some unmotivied kernel panics and issues with my other Compaq CDROM drive). I an stuck with three problems, for one my german keyboard doesn't work as expected (the <>| key in particvular). I should get round that with kbdconfig as suggested in another mail, but I diddn't fint that program installed. ;-( Since this is my first ever debian install, it's more a problem of finding and reading the docs to the packet manager and some more general info about debian systems. More annoying is the system clock, that always puts me back to 1970. Set the date, wrote it back to CMOS, checked it, rebooted and was back into the seventies. The device /dev/rtc exists with the suggested major/minor numbers from the FAQ. At this time, I enter date time after bootup like with my first PC. ;-) I cannot get X to run. "No screens found". I tried the good old xf86config setup, but don't realy know what to enter for a video card (thinking that's the problem). Help on that is also appreciated. Is there any tool to identify hardware in general?
