why I can't rebind NumLock to a different key?
Because I want the physical NumLock key to do something else, I have rebound it with: keycode 77 = Undo in .xmodmap Now I want to bind have NumLock somewhere else, so I thought I'd bind it to the right "Win" key like this: keycode 116 = Num_Lock When I start xev and press the right "win" key, it indeed shows Num_Lock bound to it. But Num_Lock is not activated (i.e. the LED doesn't light, and the relevant keys move the cursor instead of typing numbers).

I don't understand much of this. > Closing this bug because I don't think there's any merit in it, sorry. In what precentage of systems do you think are the extra cursor themes and pixmaps (which together take up 60% of this package installed size) actually used? 5% ? 1% ? In what precentage of systems do you think is the package xlibs-data installed? 80% ? 95% ? I estimate that in about 75% of systems where this package is installed, the 60% of this package, the 4.3 MB of bitmaps, pixmaps and cursor data are not used. So how can you justify including that in a package that anything which has something to do with X depends on? I don't think there is any merit in that. I am not angry that you don't want to fix this bug, because no developer is obliged to do anything, it'd get done when someone sometime would feel wanting to do this and supply a patch, maybe even me. But I am angry that you closed the wish, a wish that wouldn't do anybody any harm, the burden on packagers would be minimal, would save a considerable amount of space (packages are beeing split for smaller or similar space savings: bsdmainutils/bsdutils, gettext-base/gettext), and you closed it by a one-person decision, even without a futher discussion and/or waiting for other's opinion on debian-x or the BTS. -- Miernik _ xmpp:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ___/___/ mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Protect Europe from a legal disaster.

Bug#324104: please split off non-essenstial stuff from xlibs-data to a separate package
Package: xlibs-data Version: 6.8.2.dfsg.1-5 Severity: wishlist xlibs-data contains some things which are essenstial for running most X programs, while other things in it tka up a lot of space, and are rarely used. The package takes up almost 7.5 MB of disk space, out of which 4 MB are cursors in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/icons/ (only two or three default cursors should be in the main package, the rest in xlibs-data-extra for example), and half a meg of stuff in /usr/X11R6/include/X11/bitmaps/ and /usr/X11R6/include/X11/bitmaps/ which I don't think I ever use, while I use X (I use the ion3 window manager). libx11-6 package (which I need because GTK+ depends on it) desription states: "libx11-6 depends on xlibs-data for locale data and the X error and keysym databases", and these are almost the only things I need from xlibs-data (+ two or three default cursors). So please leave only that in xlibs-data, which will make it's installed size about 40% of it's current installed size, and move the rest to a new package, for example xlibs-data-extra. Please don't tell me that 4 MB is "nothing" in the era of 200 GB hard drives - people want tu use flash disks as the only filesystem also in desktop computers, not just embedded (just because of their silentness, nothing else), and/or put a copy of the whole filesystem in RAM for speed, and then such a waste of diskpace matters. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i586) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.12-1-386 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

please provide a Debian XTerm be compiled with --enable-256-color
I asked for this some time ago in withlist bug #305540 but it was left without effect. Maybe you guys where too busy with preperaing releasing sarge then, and/or didn't want to introduce such changes just before sarge release, but now in the post-sarge era maybe my plea will get some response. Could Debian provide an XTerm be compiled with --enable-256-color passed to ./configure? ELinks http://elinks.or.cz/download.html is a great textmode webbrowser, and now it supports 256 color mode, which looks really great To try it, use my CVS debs from deb http://ffii.org/~miernik/debian sid main Or perhaps, because this inscreases the memory usage of xterm, if you feel that the increase would be significant, and not useful for most users, Debian could provide two versions of the xterm package, one like it is now, and a second one for example xterm-256color? The Debian packages of X are made in such a way, that you cannot compile only one of them, you have to recompile the whole Xorg set, which is huge download of sources and takes a really long time, so it's very difficult for example for me to package xterm with 256 colors enabled each time a new release of X is done by Debian, which happens quite often. -- Miernik _ xmpp:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ___/___/ mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Protect Europe from a legal disaster.

xterm or rxvt fails to start with 2.5.70 kernel (works OK with 2.5.62-ac1)

I am using the latest sin/unstabled distribution (upgraded fully just a while ago). Everything else works fine for me. The 2.5.62-ac1 was compiled by me manually with make dep && make bzImage && make modules && make modules_install && make install With 2.5.70 I used make-kpkg from kernel-package 8.038 I compiled it on a different machine, but that other machine is also a fully upgraded today to sid/unstable. In http://www.miernik.ctnet.pl/linux/ I have put .config files for both kernel compiles, their diff and some info from reportbug on the machine that xterm fails to start (but I did NOT file a bug with it, I want to hear some comments first, maybe it's just my mistake somewhere). There are no messages in /var/log/xdm.log or XFree86.0.log when staring an xterm, and when starting a rxvt there is a Open APM failed (/dev/apm_bios) (No such file or directory) in /var/log/xdm/XFree86.0.log I've done "mknod /dev/apm_bios c 10 134" but it didn't help (the Open APM failed message is still in the log).

Bug#176834: [S3 86C375 ViRGE/DX] [4.2.x] freeze (Alt-SysRq doesn't work) if raidly switch from vc to X and back
Package: xserver-xfree86 Version: 4.2.1-4 Severity: normal -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 My videocard BIOS is: S3 86C375 ViRGE/DX BIOS. Version 1.01.03 Date 02/03/98 When I switch from virtual console to X with Alt+F7, and then rapidly (before it switches and changes the videomode) I try to switch back to vc, everything gets frozen with a comletely black screen. Alt+SysRq does not work, CapsLock/NumLock do not work. Even programs running in the background stop working (I know this because I have a driver for an external device which inquires a daemon running on PC, and the device stops working if the daemon does not respond). This happened two times to me, but I am not able to reproduce it on request. No evidence in log files, the one included is a clean logfile just to show what my system is. This did not happen when I was using X 4.1.0.
