1) Post with a subject that descrubes your issue. There could be 500
people here who could answer your question, but they do not know that
they can help with a subject like "HELP PLEASE" so they don't read
your mail.

2) Install SSH and a desktop (I prefer KDE). You can ssh into the
server with the -X flag and forward X.

If you need more help then post with a better subject and I'll see
what I can do.
