I've successfully installed and set up the current Risc PC ARMLinux distribution, and most things seem to be working happily. There are a few little X related things that seem to be broken, which I don't know how to fix: Firstly, the keymaps in X seem to be wrong if X is started on booting via settings in inittab. In particular, both delete and backspace act as Ctrl-C, which makes command editing a little tricky. Quite a few symbols are in the wrong place, and I can't get an @ up at all. This happens irrespective of which user is doing it, although all the user's config files would have come from the same source. Running X by booting as multiuser and running startx has the (AFAICT) correct keymaps - editing is possible. I suspect it needs a config change somewhere - can anyone say where, and to what? Also, AFAIK unrelated, is a problem where some windows which have text input icons refuse to take the input focus, so it's impossible to type to them. I first noticed this with pcb, and thought it was a problem with that, but it also appears in the standard xfm, in the File Manager Folder->Go To dialogue. Under either fvwm or fvwm2 they steadfastly refuse to be selected, keeping a grey title bar even clicking the mouse all over them, and so this box can't be used. Icon clicks are accepted, and only a few specific windows (all dialogue IIRC) seem to suffer from this. On a related note, is there any way (as root of course) of killing X when it has been booted into? Killing the window manager or miscellaneous X tasks seem to just cause it to go back to the X login screen, as if I'd logged out. Finally, are there any graphical WWW browsers for ARMLinux about? I know the problems with Netscape, but has anyone compiled Arena or Mosaic for a.out? Failing that, has anyone compiled Lesstif? I've tried and failed - it doesn't like arm610-unknown-linuxaout as a machine type - has anyone got ARMLinux-aware config.guess and config.set files?. I would poke around the source RPMs, but I need to figure out how to use rpm first. Is the graphical package management tool so tantalisingly put on control-panel actually available for ARMLinux?
