xemacs20
Has anyone had success running the new debian xemacs20 package in hamm? Mine installs OK but dumps core when run and wont come up on the screen. I have had the same problem with that version of xemacs running in X. When I tried running it from a terminal it worked fine. I have no idea why it refuses to run under X, when xemacs19 worked just fine... SJG -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

Re: major PPP packet loss
Well, after several more hours of tinkering, I'm tracking down my problem. I changed the USR factory settings on my modem. My connection would still crash out. So I let a ping session run for an hour to see what happened. Here is a sample of the results: round-trip min/avg/max = 210.0/361609.2/2969940.0 ms So my connection isn't dropping completely. I'm just losing an insane amount of packets. Any suggestions? If all else fails, try upgrading the ROM in your modem. I haven't been following this thread, but just recently I put in a new ROM for my Sportster 28.8 (which now makes it a full 33.6 FWIW). In doing so, it did actually increase the stability of me connection (ie., quakeworld runs better, longer ;) Of course, this may not apply if you already have a newer modem. I wasn't paying attention very well ;) SJG -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
Re: Off-topic: Making ALT be the META key
Did anyone come up with a solution to this one? Is this controlled by emacs of X keymapping (or both)? I had the same problem (with emacs) until it spontaneously corrected itself. David Yes, I did receive a reply about this. It turned out to be an problem with my X keymapping (although there may have been some way to get around it with XEmacs, but..) If I did an 'xmodmap', I would have a mod1 line with the two ALT keys and a mod4 line with the two META keys. By doing a xmodmap -e 'remove mod4 = Meta_R' -e 'remove mod4 =Meta_L' the problem will be resolved (ie., you removed that mapping of the Meta keys, so it will now default to the Alt keys). I have no idea which 2 keys the mod4 line was mapping the Meta keys to... SJG -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

Off-topic: Making ALT be the META key
I recently installed XEmacs, and would like to have it recognize my ALT key as the META key (which I thought was supposed to be the default, but isn't on my machine). I played around with xmodmap some, but didn't accomplish anything useful. This is an i386 platform, so the HP fixes for it won't help :) Thanks.
