[sf-lug] minimalist set up

[Alex Kleider]

The recent post by John F. S. (jstrazza at yahoo.com) reporting on his 
recent experience with mx-linux version 19
has prompted me to report on my own experience (still on going) setting 
up Debian without a desk top and then adding wicd (wicd-client for 
wifi,) xorg, xdm (and xdm-tools), fluxbox & firefox-esr. (Something I've 
wanted to do for a very long time.)
It hasn't been easy but things now seem to be working satisfactorily.
Next step is to get python (v3) set up so I can run it under virtual 
environments using virtualenvwrapper.
I've been trying to keep notes and would be happy to share info if 
anyone wants to embark on a similar journey.
