[NMLUG] Debian: Starting from scratch....sorta
install it all, then do a 'dpkg-reconfigure <package>' on your packages
Tim Emerick spoke forth with the blessed manuscript:
> Some time ago I had voiced my intent to remove X and KDE from my debian
> system and reinstall from scratch...sorta. I discovered aptitude and used it
> to find all installed packages that had X and KDE or K* and removed them.
>
> I then used apt-get to install x-window-system but I couldn't get it to fire
> up. I removed it again using aptitude and removed all .X* files in my home
> directory and in /etc. Also removed anything that seemed X or KDE related.
>
> Still no luck getting X to reconfigure.
>
> Can anybody offer any help on how to get x-window-system and kde to install
> using apt-get, prompting me for config options, the way it did when I
> installed it the very first time?
>
> Much thanks in advance.
