Subject: Installing gnome on sarge and x11 


hi,  this of course is slightly off topic but I am using debian
testing the speakup modifyed base install.  I installed it and just
added a few packages like speech dispatcher  lynxfestival flite dectalk
5 cdrecord lynx kernel 2.47 speakup saytime saydate and that is all I
have installed.  
I know I need to get gnome with the command apt-get install gnome and I
need to get goprenicus but what should I get to install the x11 server
first.  Thanks.  Also what should I use that is the easyist way to brows
my windows network.  I want some thing easy to use.  Also I want a email
program under gnome or command that is easy to use like outlook.  I am
trying to find the easyist and best programs to use across the board so
I can put linux on all my systems and so an nontechical user will be
able to just get in and use the system.  My girl is not techical at all
and I want to make things as easy for her as I can. Thanks.  
I also want to say here I am having more fun with linux learning it then
I have ever had with any other operating system there is just so many
ways to do things.  Thanks for all the help so far.
