[ale] no X windows because of 2.2->2.4 upgrade............

[Courtney Thomas]

Greetings !

Under Debian-2.2.19pre17, to upgrade my system, I..............

	apt-get install dist-upgrade

so now I have no X window system, by which I mean [among other things]
there is not even a 
startx script extant. I've not put all this together but reading man X I
see there are quite a few pieces. 

Please advise about the least painful way of restoring this
functionality, but please not "get a CD and start over", because part of
this exercise is to learn how to manually construct an upgrade. 

If anyone knows of a URL that delineates in detail this procedure I'd be
most gratified to hear of it.

Thanks,

Courtney
