Okay, I see now.

Nun brauche ich nur Methoden das wie ich auf der Machine schreibe machen. (Auch wie man Umlauten auf eine Americanische Machine macht.) ;) Besten Dank, David That's quite simple: Use LaTeX. Really, it solves all your problems. You can easily code Umlauts and Eszett in a smart way: \usepackage{german} and then: Der Lowe frist Musli. Und Ol mag er auch. LaTeX also pays attention to placing the ligatures properly. You can easily create PDF output (for sending text to others), as well as easy printing (PS output). In pure text mode, you can of course use ae, oe, ue and ss substitutions which are valid. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
X11 remote desktops and keyboards
I'm having a problem where if I try to create a remote desktop using X11, my keyboard gets remapped quite oddly. (One key I've learned is that 'e' translates to 'backspace', for instance...) This does not happen if I just run a program remotely. It only happens if I try to run Xnest or Xephyr and then run a program inside that desktop. (So running xterm directly works fine, but running an xterm in a Xnest session doesn't.) My 'home desktop' (the one running the X11 server, that I'm trying to remote my FreeBSD desktop to) is OS X 10.6.6, running XQuartz 2.3.6. (The default Apple X11 server.) The FreeBSD machine is running 8.2-RELEASE (amd64). I do get an error when running Xnest or Xephyr. In Xephyr the error is: Xephyr unable to use SHM XImages expected keysym, got XF86TouchpadToggle: line 123 of inet In Xnest it is: expected keysym, got XF86TouchpadToggle: line 123 of inet Couldn't get keyboard. Any ideas on what's going on or how to fix it? Daniel T. Staal --- This email copyright the author.

Re: 8.2 RELEASE amd64 support for broadcom 432b(4322)

The only problem is that my builtin wireless is a bcm432b which is PITA to make work in any non-propietary system.I know for other bcm43xx cards there is the bwi driver, but mine isn't supported. I've tried tried - Ndisgen on bcmwl5.inf and bcmwl564.sys - Ndisgen on bcmwl6.inf and bcmwl664.sys - ndiscvt bcmwl5.inf and bcmwl564.sys to ndis_data_header.h and compiling ndis.ko Here's what I noted - bcmwl564_sys.ko creates an ndis0 interface which seems to work except it doesn't communicate with the router - also, when loaded from loader.conf somewhere in the boot sequence the computer reboots - bcmwl664_sys.kp does nothing - The new ndis.ko also does nothing This is not my first attempt at FreeBSD on my macbook. The last time the major stumbling block was the gpt and sysinstall. Now the big problem for me is the wireless because I keep the router in another room. As extra info, in Debian Lenny broadcom's wl driver works but iwconfig will NOT work. In Ubunu 10.04 broadcom's wl works too but iwconfig won't work and it's very slow. I'd rather waste space on a networkless BSD. So if not i'll erase the partition, install linux(debian), and try FreeBSD in a year or two. Give more useful info, like AP setup. How are you using wpa_supplicant and do you use ndis_events? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
