XEmacs 21.4 (patch 19) Mule does not work
I have installed XEmacs 21.4 (patch 19) Constant Variable [Lucid] (i386--freebsd, Mule) But mule does not work at all. For the first, it does not read files in proper manner. I have done the following: 1) visit a file using cp866 with cyrillic letters; 2) set terminal-coding-system to alternativnyj (it is just cp866); 3) set file coding system to alternativnyj. Now I see two characters instead each cyrrillic letter. Cursor moves only to one half of visible characters. The characters vary in unpredictable way when it moves. For the second, it does not go to Quail mode. An error message Cannot open load file: overlay appears when I type C-\ or something like this. So, no mule at all. What should I do?

Best Regards, Rodrigo Souza Sao Paulo - Brazil The first depends on the shell used. For example, in bash do: export PS1='\w' All about prompt is described in bash(1), tcsh(1) and so on. Use ls -G for colored files or set CLICOLOR and CLICOLOR_FORCE environment variables for the same. For example, in bash type: export CLICOLOR= export CLICOLOR_FORCE= All about this is described in ls(1).

I've also have trouble with the su command... since I installed the FreeBSD 5.4, everytime I try to login as root with su, the shell answers me with Sorry... and that's all. Is it wrong configured or installed? You need to be in the 'wheel' group to su to root. It's not mentioned in the su manpage, but is in both the FAQ and handbook. http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/admin.html http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/securing- freebsd.html -- Dan Nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED] Although it is described in the handbook, in my opinion an error message, or more generally a feedback message, should give more useful feedback to the user. Now the user must think of all the checks that can fail while - in this case - authenticating, which is rather silly when you think of it, because the su-command, just did exactly the same, and could have easily printed a message that would describe the check on which it returned the error. - Freek Nossin PS: cc to freebsd-? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] There is a way to su root anyway. Should you read su(1) and pam.conf(5), you see that your ability to su root depends on the /etc/pam.d/su For the first time, you can delete this file, and you will be able to su anybody always. But this is not a good way for security reasons. Then read pam.conf(5) and edit the /etc/pam.d/su in a way allowing you to su root. But only you.

console driver and keymaps
How to understand and write keymaps? Is this any document besides kbdcontrol(1) and kbdmap(5)? The later two is not enought for me. After reading of these two I have many questions. E. g.: How to make Alt+a acting as sequence Meta a Alt+a acts in other way, than a pressed after the key acting as alock. So, what is alock? How kbdmap affects on LEDs? Should I describe scan codes 128-255? and so one and so forth.
