Re: [giuliano@ronchiato.it: X 4.0.1-6: problems]
Giuliano, I posted much the same question as your #1 yesterday, and someone had posted a response to my question shortly after I asked. Check the debian-x archives for their response. :) Regarding xf86cfg, this is to be expected. It is not nearly ready to be called a production tool. You can use dexter(1) to generate an XF86Config-4 file, or you can write one yourself. (See XF86Config(5).) And, I haven't a clue how to make the keyboard go. * Branden Robinson [EMAIL PROTECTED] [001121 22:41]: - Forwarded message from Giuliano Grandin [EMAIL PROTECTED] - From: Giuliano Grandin [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: X 4.0.1-6: problems Date: Wed, 22 Nov 2000 00:28:48 +0100 Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.75 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.2.15 i686) X-Accept-Language: it, en Dear Mr. Branden, I'm Giuliano Grandin and I write from Italy.
