Try this (http://www.go2linux.org/Looking-glass-on-debian-Etch) it worked for me.

Thanks Partyboi2. That was the info I need. I can now start Looking Glass although I'm a bit disappointed that this desktop environment has alot of problems running apps.But anyway, its was nice to try out a different desktop environment. I'm amazed by the degree of customization that Linux and Ubuntu provide.
