Re: FAQlist?

2000-03-31 Thread David Butts
Hello, all-

My bad... That's what I get for asking the question w/out reading all
the recent mail first.

ctrl-alt-F[1-6] indeed does the trick.

In a desperate attempt to redeem myself, I'll try to add some new
content to the discussion :)

Is there a particular reason that ctrl-alt- is used instead of just
alt-?  Is it configurable at all?  For that matter, is there an
analog of XF86Config for Xsun?

Thanks again for all the work that has gone into this-
David

Hello, all-

First off, you guys rock.  Many, many thanks for all the work you've
done.

I've poked around the ultralinux FAQ and a few man pages, but haven't
quite managed to find this: Is it possible to get Xsun to honor the
alt-F[1-6] virtual-console switching keystrokes that XF86_* allow?  I
realize that with a window manager that supports multiple workspaces,
the presence of the virtual consoles is not as critical, but it'd be
nice to have [access to] them.

Thanks again-
David

Any question that could "annoy most experienced users" should
IMHO be asked right away.

I'm quite sure that more Debian specific information will be added
to the FAQ at www.ultralinux.org in the very near future.

There is a FAQ for sparc linux in general at:
http://www.ultralinux.org/faq.html

at the moment it doesn't have very much that is debian specific.  But
if you don't find what your looking for, as Ben said just ask the
list.

Fire away, there are things that I can think of that are more annoying
than sparc questions, so you wont be bothering me :)
