I apologize if my original post does not contain enough information for you to base your reply on.

On the contrary I would very much like to use the X Windows System (just to clarify: the X Windows System is the graphical user interface, correct? the one which has snazzy icons and the gizmos on the desktop?)

Am I also right to say that even though I selected all the sets during installation, I would still have to manually install the package called xorg? (On Debian, I have to install xorg first before I install gnome-core, lxde-core or Openbox. I understand that xorg includes all the free and open-source drivers of most vendors of video chipsets.)

Excuse me for my poor knowledge of Linux/Debian/Ubuntu/OpenBSD.
