Progress so far... 1) I got the new computer running: Linux vega1 3.2.0-2-amd64 #1 SMP Mon Jun 11 17:24:18 UTC 2012 x86_64 GNU/Linux 2) I can run X ( No screen after boot!

As I run wheezy, too, I've attached my /etc/apt/sources.list - you can figure out the differences :-) (but please ignore the lines refering to sid)

Thank you for the list - it has resulted in just one error, as follows:
21:27 root@vega1:~>apt-get install kde-trinity ...Some packages could not be installed.... kde-trinity : Depends: kdegraphics-trinity (>= 4:3.5.5) but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. 21:27 root@vega1:~>apt-get install kdegraphics-trinity ...The following packages have unmet dependencies: kdegraphics-trinity : Depends: kghostview-trinity (>= 4:3.5.13-0debian9+r1258283+pr3~squeeze+ax5) but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. 21:28 root@vega1:~>apt-get install kghostview-trinity ...The following packages have unmet dependencies: kghostview-trinity : Depends: gs E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. 21:28 root@vega1:~>apt-get install gs
Package gs is a virtual package provided by: ghostscript-x 8.71~dfsg2-9 [Not candidate version]

There seems to be some confusion about gs - is there a problem with it?

You are sure you did a "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade" first?
If yes, puge all trinity packages first, then reinstall.
GS: you'll need the "gs" dummy package that I put on the bugtracker http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=745
And you'll most probably run into a "funny" problem when installing ksm-*, which is caused by dpkg-divert and some stupid plasma refrerence. When it hits you, you can overvcome it this way :
# mv /usr/sbin/dpkg-divert /root # cp /bin/echo /usr/sbin/dpkg-divert # apt-get .... # rm /usr/sbin/dpkg-divert # mv /root/dpkg-divert /usr/sbin/dpkg-divert

forget about this part, i've just realised that you did it already :-)

Thank you again for your help. Interestingly, I tried to install just kmail, and it did download and can be run from an xterm. So that's progress. However, the pearsoncomputing site is running at an average of 10k bytes/sec at the moment, which makes things a bit slow, so since it's getting late, I will try your GS suggestion tomorrow.

Is there any reason why not to change the dependency from gs to ghostscript?

Ha, just looking - it's pointless - in git is already substituted gs to ghostscript-x.

Thank you for the GS dummy package - that has allowed me to install Trinity! So now I'm spending a few hours setting things up...
