Dear Debianspecialists,
I recently switched to Debian (2.1) from another distribution and now encounter a few problems I did not have before. I checked all written and online documentation, but could not find any help: Using kbdconfig I installed de.latin1-nodeadkeys as my default key map. It works fine, but some keys just do not work (that is keys with the German umlauts ä,ö,ü,ß. Using this keys only generates a beep, both on the console or in xterms under X11. Do you have an idea, to get this solved (if I `cat' a file with these characters, all is fine, xemacs also accepts the keys). In my earlier Linux-distrib this was no problem. When I open a ppp to my provider and telnet to another host (SunOS) debian transmit `xterm-debian' as value for the TERM variable. Where can I change this? (I need `xterm' or `vt100' , but I am too lazy typing `setenv TERM vt100 everytime I telnet to that host). Using the tcsh, I suddenly got the error message: perl: warning: Setting locale failed. perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings: LC_ALL = (unset), LC_CTYPE = "ISO-8859-1", LANG = "C" are supported and installed on your system. perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C"). What went wrong here? (I added some `complete' commands to /etc/csh.cshrc which seems to have caused this error. Strange enough it comes, when I quit netscape...). Apropos Netscape, my user is (for different reasons) not in /home/joh but in /homes/joh. All works fine ($HOME is OK, cd ~ is OK (tcsh), but if I start netscape4.07 (Debian package) It starts searching for /home/joh/.netscape, eventhough /etc/passwd says /homes/joh. Where do I have to correct this? Any hints are appreciated!
