Thanks Signals, After some problems with Debian accepting my pass words,
either mine or administrative, along with Debian stopping in the middle
of starting up I finally got the Root terminal to run the command and
cured the problem with the resolution. It still doesn't like my
passwords as I had to restart the program to get the resolution
recognized. It stopped again asking for the password or typing in
Control-D. It wouldn't take any of those things and it wasn't till I
typed in Exit from the program that it continued on into The Debian Desk
top.
Thanks friends.
