Exactly, NCurses is not a GUI, it's called a TUI:

Ah, the lovely "dpkg reconfigure xserver-xorg" I remember from Debian. It seemed not-so-bad until I tried the graphical configuration tools that PCLOS got from Mandriva.
And then they already had a GUI tool in Kubuntu. What's up with these devs? Do they think that a poorly integrated, alien-looking GUI tool is worse for newbies than no GUI tools at all?
