    Not able to locate the terminal.....

    Hello All,

    I am new to linux and debain as well....

    I Have two probss:

    I have installed debain 5.0 CD1 on my system (1.5 Gig RAM, 120 Gig HDD, AMD64 3000+ processor, MSI R480 Mother board) successfully.. The problem is I am not able to find the terminal on my system as we can find it with the other flavours of linux...

    Should I have to seperately download and install it?? or Can I find it on the system itself???


    Please help me with this..

    And otherwise it depends what Desktop envoirment you've got.

    Is this a default install? If so you are using Gnome go to Applications > Accessories > Terminal
