conta · Post by **conta** » Fri Sep 18, 2009 10:18 pm

hi,

i bought new laptop and I wanna install debian with lxde...

i like to do things my way so I decided to install minimal debian from http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily ... 64/iso-cd/ and then use great smxi http://smxi.org to install and update soft and stuff...

what else i wanna and need is LXDE

so what is status of lxde and debian? i mean eg in repos: i remember that in Sid there was packages kind of old. is there any repo with actaul packages?

or should I install from source (eg. svn)? if yes, is there any special what i should take in mind becouse of 64-bit architecture? (i am kind of newbie in linux, mean not very experienced... and no expos with 64)

thanks for any advice

using a netboot method or business card CD image from testing. Most wavelan cards with native linux support do work in a 64bit kernel too..
