in X, only my left shift key and left control key work properly. The ones on the right-hand side of the keyboard are unresponsive. Here's the details:
i've been using xpmac as my xserver happily for quite a while now on my g4, and have been tracking woody since the stable/testing/unstable split happened. a couple of days ago i made an aborted attempt to try the new xfree v4 packages. one package had a problem (snapshot below) | Unpacking xserver-xfree86 (from .../xserver-xfree86_4.0.2-1_powerpc.deb) ... | Setting up xserver-xfree86 (4.0.2-1) ... | Configuring Xserver-xfree86 | -------------------------- | | sh: -c: line 1: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `'' | sh: -c: line 2: syntax error: unexpected end of file | | a. ati f. fbdev m. mga b. sis v. vga | c. chips g. glint s. s3virge t. trident | | Select the desired X server driver. i selected ati, and had a kernel panic when it tried to do a modprobe. So i decided i was in over my head. Fortunately, all i had to do to go back was remake the /etc/X11/X link back to Xpmac and put my '-mode 19 -depth 16' arguments in a config file...startx worked beautifully. But, as i said at the beginning, i can only shift or control with my left pinky -- a sad state of affairs for an emacs user. does anybody have any insights? Since Xpmac doesns't have the usual XF86Config file, i'm at a loss for altering the configuration. i'm using rev10 of the Xpmac server...is there a more recent one i could try? ---- [EMAIL PROTECTED]
