Getting tramp working... Emacs, Linux, Debian

I'm supposed to be good at using Emacs, but I still haven't figured out tramp.

Well here you go:
Install tramp (apt-get install tramp on debian sarge)
Start emacs
M-x customize-group tramp
set the default method to sshx
C-x C-f /user@remote:myremotefile.txt

Success!!!!! Or not.
