was having a marvelous time, but decided i wanted some games- without really paying close attention, i ran aptitude, and did this:
Will install 14 packages, and remove 27 packages.
29.8MB of disk space will be used

... then, for some reason still unclear to me, i restarted without reinstalling the packages. i think i should be able to download the packages with the knoppix cd ( what i am using now), put them in a folder, and use dpkg to install them, but i don't know where to get the packages. Any Help?

Most of that stuff you can get directly from debian ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/
Others you can search from http://www.apt-get.org/ or have a look at the /etc/apt/sources.list of your hd install.
nvidia you probably know where you got from.

Have you got write access for root only? Then cd to the hd and do:
sudo su
wget ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/p/pump/pump_0.8.19-5_i386.deb

Or download them first to ramdisk and copy to hd as root.
