+B<Optional:> Also, to reduce download size, the Tutorial VM just
+includes a minimal command-line environment.  You are free to use

+You will first want to pull the apt cache files with C<aptitude update>
+(or C<apt-get update> if you prefer apt-get).

+In general, it is expected that people will
+boot up the Tutorial VM on their main desktop (the "host machine" using
+the terminology above) and then use that main desktop machine to SSH and
+web browse into the "guest VM" as they work through the tutorial.  If
+you wish to install X Windows (or any other packages), just use the
+C<aptitude> (or C<apt-get>) Debian commands.  For example, to install
+X Windows with the Gnome desktop manager, you can do:
+
+    $ aptitude update
+    $ aptitude install gnome iceweasel
+
+Or, if you prefer KDE:
+
+    $ aptitude update
+    $ aptitude install kde iceweasel
+
+You can then start X Windows with:
+
+    $ startx
