hi,
i'm running testing on a vaio z505r with X 4. this was all running
fine. my problem started after doing a new kernel (2.4.17) to try to
get a backpack cdrw working through the parallel port. installing the
new kernel is ok but i have the following error when a user runs
startx:
Error loading keymap /var/tmp/server-0.xkm Couldn't load XKB keymap,
falling back to pre-XKB keymap
root can startx just fine. i've hunted with google but can't seem to
find a solution for this one.
any suggestions where to look?
i solved this one. turns out i had recently done a major apt-get upgrade
and forgot to clean out the downloaded debs. they were occupying all the
space so the tmp directory was squeezed and x couldn't create a few
files there. cleaning out the debs solved the problem.
I always do an "apt-get autoclean" after every upgrade to remove any old
deb packages. The latest packages are still retained.
Cheers,
