I have a small computer (400 MHz Celeron, 512 MB of ram, 66 MHz Graphics Card) and it has the terminal linux (from the Alternate Install) on it and I decided to try and install GNOME, after rebooting, I type
startx
and the screen flashes twice, then, nothing, not even numlock on the keyboard responds, I am pretty sure there is something wrong in xserver configuration, but I don't know where it is, or what to modify. Also, if I uninstall GNOME, and install xserver, type
startx it does the same thing.

Could you post what you find in the file

/var/log/Xorg.0.log
If you don't want to post everything,

cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep EE
cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep WW
would be useful.
