I just installed Ubuntu 4.10 from CD as practice before migrating to a
Debian distro from SuSE. Yeah, I know 5.10 is out now :-)
I did a default install, and then an 'expert' install.
Aside from the issue of getting a ton of Python stuff, neither my video card
(an old RIVA TNT 2, model 64) nor my plain PS2 wheelmouse work.
Any attempt to go to X results in a freeze and black screen. Likewise,
running XFree86 -configure followed by a test of the new config. The
existing XFree config file uses the onboard Intel graphics chipset.
During both installs, I was never asked to config an X server or a console
mouse.
So far I find the Debian Way a little obscure.
