XFree86 4.0.2-13 in auric's incoming
i386 is uploaded. powerpc and sparc are compiling right now.
alpha, arm, and m68k, please compile this for your architectures.
Changes:
xfree86 (4.0.2-13) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* build using gcc 2.95.3-9 (see #92008)
* debian/local/dexconf: don't freak out if the selected mode list is blank
* debian/xlibs.{links,preinst,postinst,prerm}: the aggressive transition
attempted in xlibs 4.0.2-12 didn't work as planned, due to the existence
of packages which used the old app-defaults location but are no longer
part of Debian for whatever reason, and therefore have no "fixed" version
to upgrade to; removed all transition code from the preinst; stopped
shipping /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults altogether, move the file
migration code to the postinst script, and handle the compatibility
symlink in the postinst and prerm scripts just as we do the well-known
/usr/doc/package -> /usr/share/doc/package compatibility symlink
(Closes: #92074)

Yes, the CVS drivers are faster (AIUI). The difference (empirically) appears to be more noticeable on machines which have slow CPUs, and hence tend to be CPU bound (like mine which is a K6-2 500, which has very poor FP performance compared to a PII of similar speed).

I assume you need russian cyrillic keybord. Personal advice: don't use xruskb. It uses dirty hacks. xkb is a better way. Actually setup is very simple: put in your XWindow config (/etc/X11/XF86Config or /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 or simular - depends on your setup) for XFree86 3.xx: XkbLayout "ru" XkbOptions "grp:caps_toggle" or for XFree86 4.xx: Option "XkbLayout" "ru" Option "XkbOptions" "grp:caps_toggle" It should in section for keyboard. Also you should set locale. Set environment variable LC_CTYPE=ru_RU.KOI8-R. Make sure that X clients get this variable. For example on debian you can put it in /etc/environment Thats all. You should be able to switch keyborads with CapsLock now. If you want other variants of keyboard switches you can try use instead "grp:caps_toggle" one of the next: grp:toggle - switch with Alt_R grp:shift_toggle - switch with Shift_L+Shift_R grp:ctrl_shift_toggle - switch with Control_L+Shift_L or Control_R+Shift_R grp:ctrl_alt_toggle - switch with Control_L+Alt_L or Control_R+Alt_R grp:alt_shift_toggle - switch Shift_L+Alt_L or Shift_R+Alt_R grp:menu_toggle - switch Shift+Menu (on windows keyboards) Of course don't forget to restart X after config changes.

International keyboard setup (xkb)
I'm trying to make sense of the way X is handling the keyboard, via xkb. I want to be able to setup something like xkbsel to switch between a latin and cyrillic keyboard. (Cyrillic docs usually recommend using xruskb, but from what I understand, it is, as the russians might say, somewhat "otstoiniy". Based on X11R5 rather than X11R6 or something). Now the keys all seem to be there in /etc/X11/xkb - there's the cyrillic mapping in /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/ru, but the bit I don't get is where the key gets mapped to the letter's ASCII value. For instance, take the key "q". /etc/X11/xkb/keycodes/xfree86 and /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/us suggest it's the physical key 24 which gets is mapped to X key . But at what point is mapped to ASCII character 161 (hex 71) ?? When I can understand that, I'll be on my way to enhancing xkbsel to write in cyrillic.
