You REALLY need to give some more information. At the very least, we need
Yes, thanks. That did it. --David
Hi,
From this line: (--) SVGA: NM2070: Using hardware cursor
Probably, you need the option using sw_cursor. Check out the
XF86Config man pages to find out exactly how to set it.
I think you need to do something like:
As with another user I've had problems with unstable.
I killed X windows with 3.3.3-1, and can't seem to
get it back with 3.3.2. XF86Setup just blanks the
screen; returning to the tty1 I just find a segfault
message. How much do I need to downgrade? Advice?
Secondly, on my laptop, I lost
I think I have a dying hard disk; the only other option is
some virus.
I was upgrading libc gcc compliers (from potato) on my laptop
over a PLIP connection when I gradually started losing priviledges
to ftp and telnet into the machine. Once I logged out I couldn't
log back in, even as root.

Well, do you have set EMACSLOADPATH on your root (or whatever are you
using for instaling new packages)?

This was precisely the problem. The
I found some references to this in the July and August archives,

My apologies if there has been more recent discussion which I

Yes, on a machine with broken emacs19:

I get the following error message when trying to install emacs20

FWIW, I was able to compile SANE on my system running 'unstable'
with no problems. Works great with my HP ScanJet 4c.
Thanks, I did the partial upgrade. Compiling seemed to work OK,
except that the configure doesn't set up the Makfiles to compile
xscanimage. I did also upgrade the xlibs.
I'm trying to install sane (Scanner Access Now Easy) using
rpm packages for the gtk+ (Gimp Tool Kit) and sane binaries.
[ The Debian gimp package does not seem to provide the gimp
libraries that I need to compile the sane sourece code. ]
Using 'alien --auto package-name.rpm', I get error
that my university-provided office machine
(a desktop) also has one of these ps/2 mice. I also set /dev/mouse
to /dev/psaux and have no problem.

OK, after running Debian Linux for a week, my system developed
the following bug. After logging in from xdm, I can get in about
five to twenty keystrokes before the keyboard locks and I can't
even do a vulture nerve pinch to shut down.
My previous Slackware partition runs fine. I don't have

Thanks for the responses. Yes, run-xconsole is unnecessary (I also
comment it out), but the xdm-start-server was missing. Note: not

What is the current standard for device files? I have a pcmcia

which didn't work for me.)
I just answered a question I had about X fonts. XFree86 3.2 fonts
are compressed, while XFree86 3.3 are gzipped. To convert between
compression formats it is not sufficient to change only the
compression of the fonts, but also the fonts.dir file in each font
directory, which list
I chose not to start xdm at the initial configuration because my
laptop has an unsupported (by XFree86) video card (Neomagic), and
I needed to set up Xinside's (= Xi Graphics now) server.

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.

There have been several questions about colorization, but once we get

I'm looking for the equivalent of the /etc/DIR_COLORS in Slackware,
from where it is read, and where to specify that users' ~/.dircolors
be sourced.
