It has only README file: Icons was submitted by LionN <xp...@mail.ru> USER GUIDE Left click - next Xkb group Middle click - previous Xkb group Right click - exit > What went wrong with "X -configure" or "X -configure :1"?

Like I sed there isn't any output of X -configure command; the system hangs forever, so I must to restart the PC Box with the Reset Button. -- Regards, Paul Chany You can freely correct my English. http://csanyi-pal.info -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
