couple of debian apt-get questions

[Slackmonster]

I'm trying to install gnome and I can't for the life of me figure out what the name of the package is that it expects. For example, I tried apt-get install gnome, apt-get install Gnome, apt-get install gnome* and apt-get install Gnome*. Does anyone happen to know this one of the top of their head?
Second question is how do I set the line in the sources.list file so that it will grab the source files. Apparently I am missing something from them for an install and I need to get them. Any help or suggestions is really appreciate.

apt-cache search <package name>
in this case gnome.

From /etc/apt/sources.list:

# Uncomment if you want the apt-get source function to work
#deb-src http://http.us.debian.org/debian stable main contrib non-free
#deb-src http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US stable non-US

you need to explore the Debian home page.
www.debian.org (http://www.debian.org)

Use the package search tool.
You can search on names or discriptions.
It will only search the tree you want
stable, testing, or unstable.

You'll find plenty of good information including all the dependencies.

Good Luck,

Many thanks to both of you, I've got it taken care of now! :)

I would suggest apt-cache search or dselect
