I installed Debian 2.2 potato the other day and aside from the seemingly endless number of includeed packages have not any problems. I would like to ask about any information related to using apt and dselect as the man pages are not quite explicit enough. I am not a programmer by no means so some of the tags just seem greek to me. I also have talked to a few people and read some reviews and seems the most commonnly suggested Linux guides are Running Linux and Linux in a Nutshell (O'reilley) followeed by Linux Problem Solver by Brian ward. I would appreciate any input on the subjects. I am really trying not to abuse the priviledge of posting here as I really don't have a lot to offer in the way of problem solving just trying to get away from windows...Fast!! Thanks again, John
