Hi I just ran an upgrade on the potato packages (as I do every night) and got a lot of new packages. Everything seemed to be fine until gdm started. X froze and I was unable to change to another console. I decided to remove gdm from another machine and start X from xinit. It froze again. I killed X from the other machine and came back only to find out that my keyboard had changed into something garbled, only Ctrl+Alt+Del worked... :( After reboot I tried X again and agian I killed it from the other machine. I went back tried the ketboard - nothing good. Back the remote machine where I issued a kbd_mode which returned raw. Ahhh something in X changes the keyboard mode from ASCII to raw.
Now I'm not a wizard when it comes to X so I would like to know where I can change this behaviour? Do I have to get the source and recompile? A quick answer would be much appreciated -- Sven Esbjerg http://www.dina.dk/~joker
