Hi,

You can use the 6.06 CD as a source for packages BUT only the ALTERNATE
cd the desktop won't work how you want it to. Unfortunately if you got
your CD via shipit you would have received a desktop CD, which is good
but not for what you want. Make sure you downloaded the alternate CD
otherwise.

Like Thilo Six said, if you pop the cd in while running gnome it should
ask if you want to add the CD as a source for packages. Otherwise you
can enter a terminal and type:

$	sudo apt-cdrom add

It'll ask you to insert the cd yada yada yada.
