I was wondering if anyone knew of something that could replace Reflections,
specifically its support for HP's NS/VT protocol?

I don't know if XV is still packaged anymore (I think someone threw a hissy
over liscensing), but it'll be a great deal more agile than gqview on old
hardware. Just start it up and hit control-v for the file browser.

All my DGA using apps have broken as of late giving:
/usr/X11R6/lib/libXxf86dga.so: undefined symbol: atexit
A 'dpkg -S libXxf86dga.so' gives no results, but I assume it used to be in
xlibs. So were the DGA libs moved or something, or am I just SOL til the
maintainer fixes it?

The -26 release of libpam-modules seems to have a broken refference to the file
/lib/security/pam_condev.so, you can get the old package at
ftp://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/p/pam/libpam-modules/libpam-modules_0.72-25_i386.deb
or use your cached copy if you still have it.

I've noticed a disturbing behavior in the version of xdm distributed in the x
strike force's 4.1.0 prerelease series where xdm seems to listen on random ports
in the 3-6 range. I'm not quite sure about this as I don't know exactly
how to look up which program is using which port, though the

I was thinking of replacing my currently ailing keyboard with one of those new
apple pro keyboards and was wondering if anyone had any experience with them.
Will they work with debian on a PC straight out of the box or at all?
