I found a solution to the Xt errors with xf86cfg. I just copied libXt.so.6.0 from Xbin.tgz that I downloaded from xfree86.org over debian's library. (See previous posts about that problem) That problem still exists. > 3. My german umlauts äöüß are gone.

Configuring german keyboard layout with xf86cfg yields to no effect (I > restarted X, of course) Have ya tried xf86config to configure the keyboard? I also find that xkeycaps works quite well. (I switch keyboard layouts by using the gnome keyboard applet). > 5. There was a missing dependency to xutils and thus mkfontdir could not > be found. Yeah, I found that in xfonts-base or xserver-common (I forget which one). ** Derek J Witt ** * Email: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] * * Home Page: http://www.flinthills.com/~djw/ * *** "...and on the eighth day, God met Bill Gates." - Unknown **
