Thanks! There is still a problem with the x11 version. The keyboard joystick doesn't work, although in basic mode I can type with the other keys. I guess I need to look at the configuration ... again.

Do you use atari800 package?
I'm about ready to release the 1.0.7 version of the atari800 package, and I'd like some feedback from folks who are actually using the package. If you use this package, please take a look at the following issues and let me know how they impact your use: 1. The svgalib version is the only one that works well for me. 2. The curses version seems to not run basic, and has really bad menu handling in the F1 user interface. 3. The x11 version uses the same color for background as for text on my X setup. I've been told that this may relate to the color depth I'm using, but I haven't been able to make any headway. For those who actually use the x11 version I need some feedback about which situations it work in and which it doesn't. The upstream author says it works fine on his machine. Even if you have no problems with the new release, please contact me anyway, so I know how many atari users are out there ;-) I'll be downloading the package in a few minutes, so it should be available in incoming for those in a hurry. Please CC me, as I'm not subscribed to debian-user.
