Re: [LUG] New Proud Debian Owner...

I think the subsequent XFree86.X.log files are where to look next, along
with other files in /var/log, and possibly You may also find some
interesting stuff in the "." files of the user whose X session is
unstable. i.e. as that user "ls -a $HOME | more"

Thanks: in .xsession.errors I found a locale problem: cannot not find en-GB.UTF-8. 
Will try and track that down.

How much memory - don't know what the minimum recommended for Sarge with
GNOME2, but I've never run it on less than 256MB. Indeed I've never run
GNOME2 on a machine that slow on a regular basis, but I have a laptop
which is only slightly faster (with 256MB), and runs it all quite happily.

This thing has 384 Mb RAM

Will re-install, and try and then install one piece of software at a time. Lets see..

Many thanks
