How to install XORG on Debian Etch, from console.

type in the command
apt-get update
>
type in
apt-get install xserver-xorg-core xorg
>
apt-get install gdm
apt-get install gnome

And away you go. Before you say 'wait, Debian is not Ubuntu!' Well your half right, yes it's not
pure Ubuntu - but Ubuntu is based on Debian. ;)

I decided to go with a pure Debian install because that way I could get rid of the extra
"fat" I saw on Ubuntu. That's not to say that Ubuntu is bloated, but I have 10 gigs on my Linux machine..
I need to save every precious meg.
