I just tried that with 2.4.9, 2.4.11-pre and 2.4.13-pre... and all of them screwed up my key mapping. I am using mac-usb-us for 2.2.19 and it works fine. I'm using a 'macally' ext usb keyboard, by the way. Why does it change when I go to the 2.4 kernels? How do I get around this? By the way, once I figured out the keys for 'startx' I had more success. My card apparently was found, but the setting were wrong because my monitor compained. But it's progress none the less! Thanks again for tips- Neil
