I installed Debian Etch on a Dell XPS M1530 laptop. It has Intel Core
2 Duo CPU T5750 @ 2.00 GHz, 3 GB Dual channel DDR2 RAM, 256 MB NVIDIA
GeForce 8600M GT video card and 250 GB SATA Hard Disk.
After installation, the X server blinked two times and gave an error
message "X Server Failed. Do you want to see the error report and do
you want to view detailed error report." I saw the details and
couldn't figure anything. How do I make GNOME run on my laptop?

Hi.

Thanks a lot to all for the kind help.

Since I formatted the wrong external flash device with fdisk I use it only
after heavy meditation and sacrifying a goat.

Do you have the nVidia or ATI graphics drivers installed? Did your recent
update also update the kernel?

I formatted my external storage as ext2 and use the ext2ifs.exe windows
driver for read/write access. There are several other drivers like
this also.

Sorry if this is the wrong place - I've already posted to
alt.os.linux.ubuntu, but am not familiar with the spread/overlap of
knowledge in this area...
Having been successfully using a Dell PowerEdge SC430 for over a year
with kubuntu/apache2/php/MySQL as my local server, it suddenly started
misbehaving in weird ways.
It's almost completely stopped...

#1 above demonstrates the ignorance of the ISP. "Smarthost protocol"! Ha!
The smart host is your ISP's SMTP server, which he called the "outgoing
server" at the 69.145.248.57 IP. It has a FQDN, maybe
I cannot telnet into it because they won't allow someone off of their
network to access it for fear of a spammer trying to relay spam through
it. They would have another SMTP server for their incoming mail from
other MTAs on the Internet, and I don't know that IP.
I could access their POP3 server though, so that proved the use of the
terms "incoming" and "outgoing" seem to be correct.
