Aah! yes, this fixed it. Thanks! > As for svgalib, I think that the libggi will put wrappers for > svgalib to X or whatever, and the svgalib prog will run under X. Haven't > tried it, though. Hmm... ok, I have svgalib properly pointing to libggi, and libgii is installed, but when I use, for example, zgv: display-fbdev: Couldn't open kbd. SVGAlib wrapper: unable to open default visual My kbd package _is_ messed up. APT is seriously ticked that kbd is -9 while kbd-data is -10. It keeps wanting to kill kbd when I try to upgrade/install. Anyone know why this could be? Also, I found out the hard way that the dvorak keymap file is definately _not_ for use with apple keyboards. does anyone have one that is? I didn't use dselect when installing, so some things may be messed on my system. For example, I don't have an /etc/sysconfig directory, and thus cannot figure out how to tell the system that my clock is set to PST not GMT. Also, util-linux doesn't contain rdev, as it does in intel-world. It seems to be missing a couple of other programs, too (i.e. vidmode - perhaps fbset takes care of this?). I guess that's enough questions for now :) Thanks, all! Peter -- Peter Abrahamsen [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.halcyon.com/p1rabbit PGP: 0xC279D219: C080 6D6F 4492 C63D 20B7 8D41 8B17 C781 C279 D219
